Ain’t no Texan I ever known said ‘pea-kan.’ And except for a couple of years in Missouri, I’ve lived here all my life (so far:)). Like **Dire Wolf** said, it’s _puh-cahn_. ---

I once killed a man over an entire Key Lime pie but that was ruled justifiable. ---

Bah, sweet potato pie. One of the many travesties to come out of the south. i am one of those who believes it is inferior to Pumpkin pie. It doesn’t take much to make either flavorful. Now Pecan pie…that’s a whole other story. ---

> [@](#): > > \*Originally posted by Simetra \* > > Funny stuff **Jester** , and I’d like a piece right about now too **Skerri**. 🙂 \*\* Ah yes - but would you kill for it? Sweet potato pie - feh! P’cahn pie is probably the only pie worth… well definitely derby pie is… um yeah, pumpkin pie is good too… Hailing from Augusta, Georgia - ya’ll be nice now! 🙂 (I acutally never say ya’ll - NEVER - I’ve always said ‘you guys’ - course I spent my first 13 years of life in Ohio… but I was conceived in the south 😃 ) ---
