Caraway seed cake cookbooks, including Hannah Glasse's "The Art of Cookery made Plain and Easy" (1747) (note that there are recipes for ""cheap seed-cake"" and ""a rich seed-cake, called the nun's cake""), Elizabeth Moxon's "English Housewifery Exemplified" (1764), Amelia Simmons' "American Cookery" (1796), Mary Eaton's "The Cook and Housekeeper's Complete and Universal Dictionary" (1822), and Isabella Beeton's "Book of Household Management" (1861). "Seed cake" and "caraway cake" often have different recipes (see, e.g., recipes number 231 "carraway cake" and number 235 "seed cake" in Elizabeth Moxon's 1764 cookbook, and recipes for "carraway cake" and "seed cake" in Mary Eaton's 1822 cookbook).

Seed predation seed predators locate, consume, and disperse seeds. In many cases this relationship is dependent upon the type of seed predator (specialist vs. generalist) or the particular habitat in which the interaction is taking place. The role of seed predation on plant demography may be either detrimental or in particular cases actually beneficial to plant populations. The Janzen-Connell model concerns how seed density and survival respond to distance from the parent tree and differential rates of seed predation. Seed density is hypothesized to decrease as distance from the parent tree increases. Where seeds are most abundant under the parent tree, seed
