Some people seem to know well beforehand. I do wish them well.
However, they're so often the ones who hesitate at that critical moment, and say, "no, wait... I mean..."
I prefer to postpone my decision until I'm confronted with the choice. And I think that, then, I will be able to say either "cake" or "death" without hesitation, without second-guessing. Like Lancelot confronting the bridgekeeper at the Gorge of Eternal Peril.
I don't believe it's possible for anyone to say, presently, what their choice would be, since they cannot know what will happen in their lives between now and when they must choose cake or death. An event could occur, or several, at any time, which change everything.
Well, I'm going with the law of averages. Given the choice, it's always death.
