Apparently, a poo cake is the key to a perfect apology

The couple that eats poo cake together, stays together.

Everyone has their own idea of what helps keep a marriage alive, and, for one Redditor, it seems the key is, well, poo cake.

Not an actual cake made out of poo, no. That's just ridiculous.

Rather, Redditor "ManLikeSloth" shared a simple story of love and redemption between he and his wife that involved a loud poop and an apology cake.

To any couple who has lived in close quarters, you know that this struggle is real, and it's worth pointing out the good smells associated with the cake and a few open windows could do wonders for any lingering embarassment.

Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to forward this story to my wife.
