Peanut butter chiffon with a pretzel crust. Made it myself as a teenager, took it to school, it was very popular. ---

It disturbs me that the price of apples keeps climbing but the price of bananas never changes. Apples are 3X the price even of bananas? I’m buying bananas. ---

When I was a kid, we’d go over to eastern WA to pick cherries around the Fourth of July. My allergies would be horrible but it was worth it. There’s _nothing_ like a sweet, sun-warmed ripe Rainier cherry plucked from the tree seconds before eating it. Those memories ruined store cherries for me forever. Hmm. Road trip idea. We haven’t done that in a long time. ---

When I was a kid, I would eat the tiny frickin’ wild cherries from trees that grew on the edge of the woods near my house. These things were smaller than peas, but they were still good! ---

I interrupt this fruit consumption subthread to announce a new join with classic trolling skillz. Presents himself as both [a raving Islamophobe](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=20258683&postcount=5) and a [climate change denier](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showpost.php?p=20258623&postcount=136), although I guess that’s a pretty common combo among both trolls and the authentically stupid. Offers a note of optimism, though – says that by 2100 the combustible engine for cars will be gone. Presumably it will have combusted. Meanwhile the mayor of London, being a Muslim, will continue to commit Muslim acts of terror, and preside in “Shira” courts. And that’s all as it should be, I suppose. > [@John\_Mace](#): > > … I don’t really care for pie. Unless it’s apple, warmed, with vanilla ice cream. Your commendable good taste is duly noted. But if you come to Canada you can be introduced to the delights of the [butter tart](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butter_tart) and its close relatives, the pecan tart, pecan pie, and the sugar pie (the latter mostly in Quebec). ---

> [@wolfpup](#): > > and the sugar pie (the latter mostly in Quebec). I’ve only eaten that once, and yes, it was in Montreal. When the waiter set the plate down I was startled. Generally a serving of pie is a sixth (of smaller ones) or an eighth of normal sized pie. This was a tiny sliver. Maybe a third of the normal serving? Maybe a fourth? And then I found it was so overpoweringly sweet I couldn’t even finish that. And I’m someone with a genuine sweet tooth! ---

That’s not my recollection, but though I often have butter tarts, I haven’t had sugar pie since I was a kid. We had a summer cottage where a truck would come up from the village bakery with fresh bread and pastries including something like sugar pie. I’m sure there are many variants but my recollection was it was a lot like a butter tart, a sort of mellow caramel-like flavor but not overly sweet at all – similar to, but different, than the American notion of a pecan pie but without the pecans. ---

> [@John\_Mace](#): > > My mother was a fantastic baker, and I often hold up baked goods to hers as a standard. Maybe it’s just because that’s what I grew up with, but others outside my family have said the same thing. But I hated her cherry pie. And I’ve never had one that I liked. As I said, though, I’m generally not a pie guy. I love blueberries, but don’t care for blueberry pie. I love peaches, but don’t care for peach pie. Other than apple pie, I’ll take cake for dessert any day. Well cake is superior to pie. Consider: if you’re eating frosting from a can, you feel shame. If you’re eating pie filling from a can, Armageddon has come, and that’s all that’s left in the bunker. (apologies to the comedian who came up with this bit; sorry I can’t remember his name) ---
