1200 Pounds

Moldy oldie. And what's with the hat?

No, that's not what the cake weighs. That's how much was paid for a piece of 27 year old cake.
Of course it's not just anybody's Sara Lee. This was a piece of Prince Charles and Princess Diana's wedding cake. You remember them? They had a royally bad marriage.
In case you start thinking this piece of crap is special, it's really not. It's just a piece of one of the 22 cakes that were distributed to the "staff" post nuptials. You know, the little people behind the scenes.
One of the little people put some Saran Wrap on it and popped it in the freezer. After she died, her husband thought he'd auction it off and donate the money to charity.
I wonder if anyone is going to try to eat it?

So how much would that be in American weight?

(PS I'm hungry!)(confused?)
