The first time I heard that phrase was when my mother accused bisexuals as lustful creatures who just wanted to have their cake and be eaten too. I think the phrase means to that a person is greedy enough to have their cake(desire) both ways in which they take too much of it for granted! Just my opinion.

Personally, I think it would make more sense if the ex
pression was *You can't eat your cake and have it, too.*
Because you can have your cake, and then eat it; but you can't eat your cake and still have it.Like (1)

I've never quite understood that phrase either.
I always thought it might have something to do with Marie Antoinette when she said, "Let them eat cake."Like (1)

once you have eaten it
