mangiacake 

Translation: "Cake eater". A derogatory term used by blue collar Italo-Canadians used to describe commercialized middle-class WASPs. Italo-Canadians would view the typical daily diet of fellow WASP workers to be based on refined white flour and sugar.

Dave: "Yum! Kraft peanut butter and jam sandwiches on Wonderbread and a Coke and Twinkie" for lunch. I've been hungry since my usual double-double coffee and 3 Tim Horton's donuts from this morning. I can't wait to get home and have a Schneider's honey glazed ham and McCaines frozen cake."
Mario: "Dave. Oh. Don't be such a mangiacake. I got a mortadella, tomato and provolone on a pannino and escarole salad. Why don't you come over to my moms and try some of her pasta al forno with veal and dad's homemade sausage and wine."

mangiacake 

Coined by Italian-Canadians during the height of Italian immigrated to Canada. Translation to English is "cake eater". There are a few opinions of the direct origin. When Italians first settled into predominantly WASP neighborhoods around Toronto, they were often welcomed by these people of Anglo-Saxon decent with cake (i.e. pound cake). The perception by Italian-Canadians at this point was that Canadians eat a lot of cake, hence the term mangiacake.

Maria: These Canadians, always eat cake.
Vince: Yah, they are what we a call "mangiacake"

Reasons for an Italian-Canadian to call someone a mangiacake:

If you use butter to cook, versus extra virgin olive oil, then you are a mangiacake.

If your pasta sauce is from a jar branded as Ragu, Prego, etc, then you are a mangiacake.

If you pronounce Bruschetta as "broo-sh-edda", you are a mangiacake.

mangicake 

Non-Eastern Europeans;

When the sweep of immigrants from Italy, Hungary, Germany and many other European nations hit Canada, a lot of the men would go work on construction sites. They would work side-by-side with the well-established first, second and third generation Irish, Scottish and other Non-European Canadians. At lunch, the Europeans would take out the big honkin' sandwiches their mothers or wives made for them, while their Non-European counterparts took out their biscuits, muffins and little cakes. Therein followed lots of laughs and jests in foreign languages, and 'mangicake' was born: He Who Eats Cake.

"He EATS, but it's only cake". (emphasis on 'eat' spoken in italian, and 'cake' spoken in english).

(In Italian): "Look at the Mangicake, his wife sends him to work hungry! We should share our meals with him and make him strong!"
