When making a box cake mix, you can substitute applesauce for the oil. Oil makes a cake heavier and it dries out faster. Applesauce will make it lighter and fluffier and it will stay fresher longer and enhances the flavor, in my opinion. It's also a healthier alternative, not that cake is a "healthy" food. LOL I'm wondering if you would be able to substitute something else for the flour in those "mug cakes". I'm sure baking them in an oven instead of a microwave would probably improve the quality and taste. The frozen coke didn't work because it isn't ice cream, it's like a Slurpee or Icee, basically just flavored shaved ice.

Honestly, most people just don't want to make the McFlurry's and Ice Cream cones, milkshakes are easy because you just put a cup in and press a button. I've listened to one of my night managers, while I'm away doing the garbage, telling customers that we don't have ice cream, only milkshakes. It always makes me so angry how lazy she is. She used to just go on her phone before the store manager caught her on the cameras and gave her a write up about it. I don't respect a manager that doesn't work as hard as I do. The other night manager speaks on the phone, he just puts in headphones, but he still also gets all his jobs done while he's talking, so I respect that.

Hey Food Theory, just want to let you know that there's *another* episode you can do with self-rising flour! In different ratios, self-rising flour and greek yogurt makes a healthy (and honestly, pretty tasty) dough that can be turned into donut holes, pretzels, cinnamon buns, pizza, and so forth. It turns a lot of time-taking, yeast-containing recipes into a quick version! It's a pretty interesting base that is both super easy and delicious, so it would be an interesting thing to check out. I always use dairy-free yogurt, and that works just as well as the greek yogurt :)
