    Easily:

    1. Not a fan of cheesecakes.
    2. Eating something that really needs to be refrigerated but stayed in carton box in who knows what conditions for a who knows how long?
    3. Boxes are reusable. So there might be kids socks and a yellow sweater inside.
    4. Well, it belongs to someone else…

      That’s what ice packs are for.

      By the size of this box it’s likely a styrofoam cooler inside, with ice packs inside that, and the cheesecake was frozen to 10 below. AND… it would be shipped overnight.

      You really think a bakery wouldn’t know how to ship a cheesecake?

      Though #3 is compelling

        I thought the joke was being insulted for being called a cheesecake. Like “This way up cupcake”

        Clearly I need more coffee.

        No. Just take an old cheesecake box with socks to the postoffice and they’ll stick a new sticker. Or maybe in your country it is forbidden to use non-standard and non-new boxes in postoffices?

      Never got the buzz around cheesecke.

      I’ll have a bite and be like, “Oh, that’s a bit yum.”

      By bite three, “Ugh, this again?”

      Can never finish a slice. Something about it just gets old and unappetizing really fast. If it’s going to taste really unhealthy, it can’t also taste really boring!
