Because the teacher said it was a piece of cake!

Did You Know?
The phrase "piece of cake" meaning "something easy to do" dates back to the 1930s. It comes from the idea that eating cake is effortless and pleasant. This joke plays on a student taking the phrase literally - if homework is a "piece of cake," then surely it should be eaten! Teachers might want to be more careful with their metaphors!
