In extremely Florida news, several outposts of the grocery store chain Publix are selling hurricane-themed cakes (why aren't they called Hurri-cakes?) as Hurricane Irma nears the state's coast.。
The internet, of course, is divided. Some people think the cakes are a classic bit of Floridian gallows humor. Others actually appreciate the message -- one cake, after all, says "Go Away, Irma." 。
Plus, who couldn't use a tasty slice of fondant-engulfed cake during a trying time?

Others, however, worry that the cakes are trivializing a deadly storm that has already taken numerous lives. 。
"Might be OK if it wasn't a [Category 4] storm that will kill people," one person tweeted. 。

Still, it seems that most Floridian tweeters are okay with the cakes. A lot of people seem to be buying them -- some have even lamented that they couldn't find one at their nearest Publix.。
