The news keeps showing throngs of people waiting for oreo pie on Wall Street. I can’t help but think, “Just give the people what they want! Isn’t there another chef in Manhattan who can make extra oreo pies?”
However, this has also rekindled my love of pies. What’s not to like? The flakey crust. The gooey middle. The whipped cream on top. Honestly, there’s nothing more American than taking a perfectly healthy fruit and turning it into a toxic concoction that leads to angioplasty.
Best thing about pies is they’re diverse – they’re not limited to just fruit. Love nuts? There’s walnut or pecan pie. Prefer a smooth texture? There’s several meringue and cream pies. Looking for a hearty meal? There’s even the shepherd’s and chicken pot pie!
There’s a lesson we can all learn from here – pies have no boundaries… only crusts.
