Your Turn

Does anyone actually like pumpkin pie? I mean I know you will probably eat it if set in front of you, but is it anyone's first choice of pie?

  5. I LOVE it. I cannot say it is my favorite, but it is in the top 3. I think I like Pecan best. Glad we had a "Your Turn" today - I didn't see one yesterday. It's how I get to know you peeps!

  14. Fun fact: I had never seen an actual pumpkin in real lufe until about seven or eight years ago. I still have never tasted one and have no intention of starting now either. They look repellent.

  15. Key Lime for second place,or summer. But I'm the person who buys all the 50%off cans of pumpkin at the end of the season,I make it all year. .

  16. I FLOVE pumpkin pie.

  17. Rite of Passage in many families. Spouse's grandmother made a squash pie that was way better than pumpkin. Heirloom squash plants - very hard to replicate these days (we have tried).

  18. Oh yes. I like it enough to go back for seconds, and if there's enough left I'll have leftover pumpkin pie later.

  20. LOVE pumpkin pie. First choice always, though, is strawberry-rhubarb.

    Happy Thanksgiving all!

  21. @ Lonely the pumpkin you use for cooking is different than the type that is carved on Halloween

    ReplyDelete
  22. It has to be made by someone who knows how to do it. I hated it forever until I had "real" pumpkin pie.

    ReplyDelete
  23. First choice for me but no whipped cream. I like it year round.

  25. I make sweet potato pies. They look like pumpkin pies, but taste so much better.

    ReplyDelete
  26. Oooo pumpkin spice Krispy Kreme! They only had them at Halloween though.

    ReplyDelete
  27. No, it's boring. It's better as a cheesecake.

    ReplyDelete
  28. I do love pumpkin pie. Does that make me weird? OH NO!

    ReplyDelete
  29. With whipped cream!! Yumm

    ReplyDelete
  30. I would rather have pumpkin cheesecake. And I will after I make it tonight.

  32. Hate pumpkin pie, but love sweet potato pie made with cream cheese.

  33. Nope, Cherry is my go-to holiday pie. I don't usually eat pie during the rest of the year.

    Definitely in my top 5, depending on who makes it. The canned filling is meh, but a fresh pumpkin pie, made by a good baker, is fantastic.

    ReplyDelete
  35. Not my fave. My gay uncles always bring pies from a shwanky bakery and pecan is always the biggest hit, followed kind of surprisingly by coconut cream.

    A special Happy Thanksgiving to our girl, Candy Crowley...eat, drink, and cranberry!

  36. I prefer Apple Pie!

    Happy Thanksgiving to all!

  37. Pumpkin pie is usually not spciy enough. Make it with kabocha for a fuller flavor.

    ReplyDelete
  38. Perhaps if I sprayed an entire can of whipped cream on it I might. My son though LOVES it. I always buy one for the holidays and he pretty much eats the entire thing. (He's 18, 6 ft 1, weighs 145 and I hate him. lol...just kidding...love him but I always tell him it will catch up to him!)

    Won’t touch pumpkin, but pile on the blueberry pie! YUM!!

  40. Happy Thanksgiving CDANer’s! In our family, most like a “sliver” of each. Pumpkin custard style pie, and apple pie served with a slice of sharp cheddar. I think it’s the New England side that does the cheese and apple pie.

    Also, oyster dressing...

  41. LOVE Pumpkin pie! Made several already this year, one with Rum Chata (just 1/2 cup - but made it interestingly good!) Second fav: Bourbon Pecan pie.
    Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

    I like pumpkin pie. It's what I eat for breakfast every Thanksgiving morning. The holiday breakfast of champions. After the big meal it's always pecan pie for dessert!

    ReplyDelete
  43. Wow! There are a lot of people copping to liking pumpkin pie. I would not have expected that.

    ReplyDelete
  44. From-scratch pumpkin pie is divine. Protip: you can't make it from jack-o-lanterns, it must be made with crook-neck pumpkins that aren't hollow inside, and the cooked pumpkin must be strained through a cheesecloth to remove any stringy or undercooked parts. Then, prepared custard-style with a generous amount of spice, it's amazingly delicious.

    I would also pass on a grocery-store canned pumpkin pie with soggy undercooked crust. The standard cheap pumpkin pie is revolting, pumpkin pies must be made with love and care.

    ReplyDelete
  45. Pumpkin is definitely my favorite kind of pie. I'd happily eat it year-round.

    ReplyDelete
  46. I love it. I make it custard style on top of a cheesecake layer in a gingersnap crust with whipped cream and peanut brittle to garnish.
    I grow a fuckton of pumpkins every year so I bake a bunch at once and freeze them. I get asked for the recipe but won't share my secrets.

  47. Okay, WickedBee's sounds positively divine.

    Costco in Hawaii sells Pumpkin Pie year-round. I have had it, and it’s dreck. Go fig?

  49. Hellz yes to pumpkin pie! Don't even need to dress it up if you do it right. Stop ragging on Thanksgiving food. Every year "Wah wah, turkey is bland" "Wah wah stuffing is bad for you." Leave Thanksgiving alooooone!

  50. Love pumpkin pie!

  53. I bake pumpkin, pecan, mince and apple pear for the holidays. We buy the little sugar pumpkins and bake them, then freeze. Bake that pie crust for about ten minutes before filling. Just make sure to cover the top of the pan with foil. It will not be soggy. Pecan is nothing but a big slice of candy. I make Bird’s custard for the mince and whipped cream for the rest. Wicked Bee yours sounds amazing. IIRC you’re a farmer. Also, nothing tastes better than a wild turkey. The flavor is so different than farmed. We’re lucky if one of the hunters gets one the weekend before. No luck this year.

    1. I am a farmer and we love wild turkey too!
      Hubs got one so that's what we had for our Thanksgiving (Canadian Thanksgiving was October).

      Happy Thanksgiving to all you beautiful, hilarious People! Love you all.

  56. I like it, but it's not in my top three, and the rest of the family don't care for it. This year we are having apple, French Coconut, and raspberry instead.

  58. Pumpkin pie is definitely one of my great loves. I don't really have a first choice though. I mean, all pie is pretty good.

    ReplyDelete
  59. I like pumpkin pie, but I find all the numerous seasonal pumpkin-flavored foods rather nauseating.

    ReplyDelete
  60. I’ve never been a big dessert eater (but give me a cheese plate and I’m in heaven.) I also feel that on Thanksgiving, people are often too full to enjoy it. So last year, when I was asked to bring a dessert, I asked the host if it needed to be Thanksgiving related. He told me to bring whatever I wanted. So I brought vanilla gelato, berry-flavored sorbets, and a bowl of mixed berries with a bit of honey. Huge hit and all those poor pies that people brought are probably still sitting there :)

    Enty, I think next years question should be ‘what was your worst Thanksgiving experience ever’?

  61. Butternut squash pie. It's infinitely better, both in taste and consistency. You need to lightly boil the squash, rice it, add eggs and spices the same as you would with pumpkin pie. I dare you to try it. You won't be disappointed. Homemade whipped cream is essential.

    Happy Thanksgiving!

    I don't like pie; and I don't celebrate a "holiday" where Americans' goal is to stuff themselves.
    There are just too many millions of hungry people on the planet. Also elderly, lonely, incarcerated, terminal, hospitalized, orphaned and suffering people in neighboring countries and the US.
    When there is a holiday that they can also enjoy, then it will truly mean something.

    ReplyDelete
  63. @mercyprosperity, but you have the ability to show how holier than thou you are when millions do not have internet access for real needs. People like you are why there is suffering in the world, otherwise you would not be able to tell everyone about it. Do you happen to be an atheist vegetarian too?

  64. It’s my favorite pie! With loads of whipped cream!

    ReplyDelete
  65. @wicked bee, I’d love to try a wild turkey one year. Wish I had a hunter in the family.

    ReplyDelete
  66. I don’t know that it’s my favorite, but definitely in my top 3. And pie is my favorite dessert—I do not discriminate ,(except pecan, I hate pecan).
