Yellow cake mix
If you had to choose a widely-available yellow cake mix as a base for something, which brand would you choose? Avoid? Why?

We personally like Pillsbury Moist Supreme Classic: http://www.pillsburybaking.com/produ...ic-yellow-1294
Very moist.... and very forgiving if overbaked a bit in the oven. Always moist.

I just opened up the flyertalk app on my phone and when I saw this post I almost spit out my beer... The wide variety of posts here never fail to amuse me

Raw cake batter? That I would enjoy.
When we have birthday cake, I usually insist on a corner, with lots of frosting, and then try to eat the frosting and give the cake away.

I am equally considerate. I always tell my wife that the crunchy part of the baguette would not do her teeth any good. I'm thoughtful like that.

Yellow cake mix
My family members swear by Betty Crocker cake mix as they tend to produce a much moister cake than other mixes. It also helps if one uses an airbake-type pan.
I have tried the Cake Boss brand cake mixes and they are good. IIRC, Buddy's specialties are yellow and red velvet cakes, so those should be good. However, those mixes are around $4-5, versus $1-2 for Betty Crocker mixes.
