Terrible! an absolute disaster never cooked properly was sticky like glue. Will not make again unless I make some changes to the recipe. I noticed that most people who gave this four or five stars made alterations to the original recipe. - 17 Jun 2017
Oddly enough, it was another Catherine who gave me this recipe more than 30 years ago...she called it "Chop Suey Cake," she guessed because it's so speedy, she said. The recipe is not misprinted--there is no oil or fat in the cake, so do not feel compelled to add it. For those who insist a cake requires fat, think of angel food cakes! This is a delicious cake, very moist, full of pineapple flavor. "My" Catherine's recipe also included a cup of chopped nuts. Thanks, Catherine, for posting this bit of nostalgia. - 24 Jan 2008 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
This cake was AWESOME. Incredibly moist and great flavor. A previous review stated a cake needs oil, which I agree, so I added 1/4 cup of vegetable oil and it turned out great. I reserved a small portion of the crushed pineapples and added it to the frosting along with coconut flakes. Everything was perfect. My family and Fiance loved it. I will make this cake again... - 14 Oct 2006 (Review from Allrecipes USA and Canada)
