Ingredients

1 package (18.25 ounces) yellow cake mix
1 package (4-serving size) vanilla instant pudding mix
1/2 cup vegetable oil
1 can (8 ounces) crushed pineapple, well drained with juice reserved
4 eggs
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 medium-sized ripe banana, cut up
1/2 cup finely chopped pecans
1/4 cup chopped maraschino cherries, well drained
1/3 cup prepared cream cheese frosting

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 350°F. Coat a 10-inch Bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray.
In a large bowl, combine the cake and pudding mixes, the oil, pineapple, eggs, and cinnamon. Add enough water to the reserved pineapple juice to make 1 cup; add it to the bowl then beat with an electric beater until the mixture is thoroughly combined.


Stir in the banana, pecans, and cherries; mix well then pour into the pan.


Bake for 55 to 60 minutes, or until a wooden toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean. Let the cake cool in the pan for 20 to 25 minutes then invert onto a serving plate. Let cool completely.
In a microwave-safe bowl, heat the cream cheese frosting for 10 to 15 seconds. Stir until smooth and pourable then drizzle over the cooled cake before slicing.

UCSF Researchers say products with added sugar should be controlled just like alcohol or tobacco. They are  advocating that the government take control of the situation because the citizens are unable to do so. The solutions they suggest include doubling the price of sodas via a sugar tax, put age restrictions on purchase of products containing added sugar and legislate which stores are allowed to sell products with added sugar.

Do you favor making sugar a government controlled substance like alcohol and tobacco?
