We wouldn’t dream of saying anything bad about pie. Apparently, others don’t feel the same. It seems there’s a Great Dessert Debate going on: what’s the more classic southern dessert, pie or cake?

And it’s making pie news : The New York Times investigates the deliberations within the halls of the The Southern Foodways Alliance Symposium.

Of course, that’s the South. Up here in the Northeast, we’re well into Autumn and deep into Halloween season. There can be no desserts more appropriate than pie. Just take your pick – apple pie, pumpkin pie… What’s not to love???
