Banana cake. It is banana cake. Flour, sugar, butter, banana, baking soda, egg.
The teacher gave the child an apple and sent the kid home with fruit. We need to look at rates of childhood diabetes, obesity and the like. The I can do with my child what I want type of approach really only works if you aren't harming your child and a child that isn't getting proper nutrition is being harmed.
