Floridians have always had a unique way of coping when things get hard. Hurricane Cakes are not only our way of making something sweet out of a crappy situation, but it's literally tradition! Anyone from Florida knows how important these cakes are to us. And for those who aren't from here, they should mind their own business. Taking away the ONE thing that can make a Floridian smile during a natural disaster is about the most heartless, diabolical thing someone could do. BRING BACK THE HURRICANE CAKES!!
I’m a 2021 transplant, but I fully embody the Floridian spirit... including swamp sunsets, alligator memes, and yes, hurricane prep with the right kind of cake.
I left my snowbound, non-Florida problems at the state line, fully embracing my new role, and all I asked for in return was one tiny joy during storm season: a Hurricane Cake that embodied the resilient spirit of Floridians. It was more than frosting, it was communal defiance, dark humor, and a reminder that Floridians don’t just weather storms, we *own* them.
Sure, someone (maybe a transplant who dragged their out-of-state baggage with them, a snowbird who doesn’t even live here full-time, or a tourist who’s never been back) decided the cakes were insensitive. But guess what? For us, it was never about minimizing danger, it was about binding communities together when Mother Nature turns cranky.
Bring back our Hurricane Cakes. Bring back that sweet little wink that says, “Yeah, we’re here. We’ll survive. And we’ll get cake.” Let’s reclaim one of the most gloriously Floridian traditions ever baked.
Publix, you're on notice. FLORIDIANS want their cake back and FLORIDIANS are the ones that shop at Publix.
Publix hurricane cakes were more than just a fun treat. They were a symbol of Florida culture at its finest. We believe in having some fun while waiting for the storm to pass. I've signed this petition in hopes that Publix will listen to real Floridians in the local communities they serve and stop catering to a loud group of people (most likely recent transplants) that are hell-bent on destroying every last bit of weirdness that makes Florida beautiful and unique. Long live the hurricane cakes!
Not only the fires, mudslides, homeless, traffic, lack of infrastructure, but the entire legal system. Lost my beautiful 30 year old son in a DUI hit and run in Ventura, and the defendant served three months is a county jail. Similar stories abound. Newsom sets the tone and the tone is tone deaf.
