Pie a la mode or pie pas a la mode?

[shadowtippy]

I eat about a pint of ice cream before bed every night, but I can't bring myself to buy just plain ol' vanilla flavor.

However, whipped cream can jazz up almost any pie (as well as ice cream... even plain ol' vanilla )

If there was an option for only when I'm out of whipped cream or both... I would have voted

Is Blue Bell ice cream available in your area? They make a good assortment of great flavors. I find it better than most, if not all, other brands.

How about an ice cream pie?

Triple Chocolate Ice Cream Pie

For mincemeat, vanilla ice cream is great!
For pumpkin... whipped cream.
But for apple or rhubarb, melt me a slice of sharp cheddar on top!

Dang it! Now I want pie and ice cream! drool

Reminds me of the Monty Python skit where they are attacked be the Fromage.

What kind of pie?

Pizza pie. Shepherds pie. The kinds of pie I like. No carrots on the first one. Carrots in the second one. Ice cream? Um. No.

 

[Yools]

I no longer eat pie.

Cake.

Ice Cream.

When I crave sweets, I eat fruit. Sounds awful, but isn't.

Once you cut out refined sugar, it almost universally tastes terrible after some time.

That's exactly how I am after doing a low-carbohydrate diet a few years ago. I can't stand anything sweet anymore - don't use any kind of sweeteners (natural, artificial, refined, etc.) and I rarely even eat fruit. It's really interesting how much my tastes have changed in this regard, and it's definitely for the better.

Oh wow... I'm sorry... this is like posting "I never use pedals" in the effects forum, isn't it? But it's still Off Topic, right?

I don't eat ice cream. So my vote was no.
While we're at it, can people stop putting cinnamon in everything?

And pumpkin anything. Pumpkins should be carved into jack-o-lanterns and then dug into the vegetable garden as fertilizer. They are big decorations. They are not food.

I'm going to disagree with you here based on a technicality:
Most of the time when pumpkin is served "pumpkin spice" is deployed. This is predominantly cinnamon (with ginger, nutmeg, cloves etc.). It's the cinnamon that makes pumpkin taste awful.
If you've had it on its own, it's relatively tasteless, but not inedible.
Cinnamon is great in small amounts in a curry, but terrible for desserts.

Pumpkins are big, round objects made out of wallpaper paste. That's exactly the point. They are not food. They are fertilizer. I have no opinions. This is fact.

There is no pumpkin in pumpkin pie. The pureed pumpkin that you buy (because no one takes the time to actually remove, deseed, and roast pumpkin pulp) is actually a blend of squashes.

I don't recall ever seeing it, but I'll keep my eyes peeled.

 

[electracoyote]

Yes, with ice cream and if I can also get a cookie or brownie, that is even better!

Golden Corral, Thanksgiving Day.

After stuffing my guts with turkey, catfish, and plenty of sides, dessert consisted of apple pie, a scoop of vanilla, and a brownie.
