It's simple. A lot of times brides want to keep their weeding cakes because they look good, and when you cut your cake to eat it it makes the cake not look good anymore.
You can't keep the decoration of the cake and eat it at the same time.

Saul: Wait a minute. Wait a minute. Wait, stop right there. Listen. Stop right there a minute. A man goes into a restaurant. You listenin'? A man goes into a restaurant. He sits down, he's havin' a bowl of soup. He says to the waiter; "Waiter, come taste the soup." Waiter says; "Is there something wrong with the soup?" He says; "Taste the soup." He says; "Is there something wrong with the soup? Is the soup too hot?" He says; "Will you taste the soup?", "What's wrong is the soup to cold?", "Will you just taste the soup?", "All right, I'll taste the soup. Where's the spoon?", "Ah-ha!"
(Me:)
Saul: "Ah-ha!"
(Me:)
Saul: What do you know from funny, ya b*stard?
(Me on the outside:)
(Me on the inside:)
(Years later when I finally got it:)

Ya Im totally with you. shyts just a logical fallacyNot a joke, but I couldn't understand that expression "you can't have your cake and eat it too" for years as a kid.
I get it now, but it's a really poorly-worded expression.
I hate it.
why is it so fukkin complex
is it cause i have downs syndrome?
like i actually have it
i've always been impressed with this movie because there are so many references to future real life events...So I'm guessing he's sayin he didn't have a spoon
But its stupid, why else would I want cake other than to eat it? thats not a good example, cake is useless if you are not going to eat it.lol...you used the example of "you cant have your shoes and wear them too"...well that doesnt work in the spirit of the cake proverb, because you can still HAVE your shoes after you wear them....After you EAT your cake, you wont HAVE it anymore. So you have to choose...either HAVE your cake, or EAT it. One or the other.
