Poll question: Should apple be the official American pie?

If you vote no, you are against apple pie.

1. I LOVE French apple pie

3. It rather implies that apple pie is an American thing

Whereas there's plenty of it in the rest of the world.

6. I Believe it IS Native

and that Americans were culinary heretics for adopting in Colonial days when pies were generally filled with meat.

I don't see the point of an official national pie. But apple probably has the best claim.

9. This is

sort of a delayed copycat thread from when someone posted
'Should English be the official American language'
and I posted 'no, for the same reason apple should not be the official pie'. And someone started posting about pie and it reminded me.

But no doubt some freeper will look at this and say: See, those DUers are against apple pie!

4. No, it should be something native, like strawberries or prickly pear.

5. Or blueberry

Blueberries are native aren't they? Not to mention DELICIOUS.

7. Cream Pie

For without it, America would be a very empty place indeed

8. *gasp*

10. No. Pumpkin pie. Pumpkins are indigenous to the Americas.

So pumpkin pie should be the official American pie.

11. Amen

And Amen, nothing like a great Pumpkin pie. My wife makes great Pumpkin Pie.

12. Rhubarb strawberry

or so my wife says.I vote for cherry.

[warrens]

13. Hold the rhubarb

I have a farmer's market down the street every week during the warm weather and one booth has FRESH HOMEMADE STRAWBERRY PIE. It's pure heaven.

[gizmo1979]

16. That sounds yummy!

[Burma Jones]

14. Chess Pie, or Shoofly or Sweet Potato or Pumpkin

Or, what we used to have every February 22, Cherry Pie.

15. Apple Strudel -- perfect for BushAmerica.

[cestpaspossible]

17. Why do you say that?

[Benhurst]

18. Because it seems an appropriate dish to be enjoyed in the "Homeland,"

the Bush Crime Family's version of the Third Reich.

It's time to stand up to these goons with their "Homeland" Security and "Patriot" Acts and re-establish the Republic.
