A Relish Cake-Not For a Contest

What a horrible thought it would make
to think a pastry chef would ever bake
a delicate confection we know as  cake
with chopped pickles...Oh, what a fake!

I prefer relish on a juicy hot dog in a bun
but not a relish cake. No, thank you, hun.
Not even a taste if you held a loaded gun.
That's all I have to say, and now I'm done...
except to note this is not for the contest
judged by the one who thinks she's the best.
