Looking at these pictures makes me hungry!

Happy 237th Birthday to the U.S. Army on Thursday. They celebrated the milestone with two huge cakes in New York and Washington D.C. and Army brass honoring the occasion.

Even the famed “Cake Boss,” Buddy Valastro, from the hit reality show joined the team in NYC for the festivities. He prepared the yellow cake pictured above. The tank-shaped dessert below is actually made from cupcakes prepared by Georgetown Cupcake.

Be on the lookout for Army personnel reporting diabetes-like symptoms and immediate cavities after today. That’s a lot of sweets! But, they deserve the recognition.

    It would be a whole lot better if those tanks could do something like shoot globs of chocolate out of the gun. Still, that won't stop me from risking urgent dental care by pigging out if one of those was in front of me.

    There's a tank few people would run from. In fact, it's more likely people will be chasing the tank for a bite. I just hope they get good dental consulting once their teeth start aching though.
