So, what would you do when the office jerk is trying to shove that
piece of cake in your mouth? Tell him it's OK, but you have to go
out and get some steak and vegs to go with it?

Given the probable lack of quality in that office cake, I would have declined.

Seems to me scoping out the situation and making his judgement is
exactly what he did. How many office cakes have you typically seen
that were that great?

Not many.

I think Mike's real point is how annoying it is to have some people
around that insist you have to eat what they want you to eat. Why
people do this remains a mystery, but I think Mike's answer to them
was a good one.

I agree and was never suggesting that Mike's answer should have been different.
He scoped out the situation and decided to decline the cake as I so often do. I
was just letting him know that in other cases when the carb is of good quality
or especially appetizing, he can probably have some without derailing his
success.
