You see theres defo some cross channel pie / cake problems here..

 

In the UK a pie is a pie.. meat/savoury you name it with it mainly being the savoury variety..sure we have apple pies an such but for me that pic above is a cake not a pie regardless of what you want to call it..

 

I move that this poll is null and void under the pie/cake discrimination act of 1903

You'd be wrong, though =D

 

Pie is defined by its crust, and so regardless of what you think of as pie, all crusted pastries in a dish are pies. Besides, I knew plenty of people from both Britain and Wales who made fruit pies and called them pies.

I will not argue your definition of pie but just that for me if its sweet its always more cake then pie regardless of pastry..

 

Yeah sure an apple pies an apple pie but that above is chocolate cake plain an simple ( i know its got pastry BUT its more choc than pastry;)

 

When i think of pie i think sunday roast not saturday night at the movies:/

I know i know guys..lol

 

Im just saying that i cant help that its ingrained into my peanut that:

 

Cake = Sweet

Pie = Savoury

 

As said yes apple pie etc etc.. but things like that chocolate behemoth above are far more common across the pond & for me regardless of definition i would just ask for a piece of cake if i spotted it..
