Alright, fast food is still edible and sometimes even tasty, but I have yet to try decent American sweets. Any pastry or cake that is OK in America is either a pie (they are much tamer) or imported. Otherwise, everything else is utter rubbish.
:dancinglock::clown: - I hope not, especially since Tribsey is not here.
any type of pie. includes pizza pies.
Hmm, then pie it is! :2thumbsup:Quote:

Pasties are essentially just funny shaped pies, so I'll go pie!
Pies pretty much just liquid cake. It can't compete with real cake though.
Methinks you are making your pies wrong, a pie consists of tender chunks of steak by itself or with mushrooms, onions, carrots, or basically whatever veggies take your fancy, all cooked with a bit of gravy in a pastry. They can be big enough to feed the whole tribe, but the best kind are hand sized pies. Now I'm dying for a pie and my oven is broken :wall:

Sweet food is disgusting, I hate pie. And cake. A good pie is a meat-pie or a quiche. Cake, yeah I know what you are going to ask, yeah once never again.
If you include pizzas and pot pies then it's not a contest. Plus I made my own ice-cream pie for kicks a month or so back.
So pies it is.

Cake. Always cake. :yes:

I move that this poll be declared invalid due to an obvious bias on the part of its creator.
hey!
the poll is fair!
Had leftover pizza for lunch today. [Pepperoni, yes. Chillies and sweet chilli sauce, hm.]
Am currently in the process of consuming apple pie.
It is good.
A pizza is not a pie, it is a flatbread topped with tomato, cheese, herbs etc.
yes it is. its just a very, very, very shallow pie. furthurmore, a deep-dish pizza is essentially a pie, is it not?Quote:

Hmm, no option for both . . .
Cheesecake
Carrot Cake
Devil's Food Cake
Strawberry Short Cake
Rhubarb Pie
Pumpkin Pie
Chocolate Cream Pie
Bavarian Apple Tort (I'm not sure what category that one even goes in)
Pies and Cakes are both delicious. A world without both of them would be a sad world indeed.

The whole thing is pretty rediculous, comparing a meal to a dessert is just silly. The dessert will almost always taste better, but the meal will be far more satisfying. If you ate enough cake to fill you up like you would with a pie, then you would feel sick and if you only ate a single slice of pie like you would with a cake, then you would be left feeling hungry.
If I could only chose one or the other then I would definitely go with the pie since then I would get a full satisfying meal instead of just a few delicious bites.
Remember that in America the word "pie" means strictly dessert dish. If a pie is not a dessert pie, then it is a "meatpie" (if it has meat that is). Hooah's comparison is perfectly reasonable in the US. But even the American pies (and any dessert pie for that matter) are still more wholesome and satisfying than cake, almost like a main dish, despite the fact they are sweet.Quote:

Cake. You horrible, horrible people.
The cake is never a lie. Cake batter. Ice cream cake. Gooey butter cake. Cake 'n Shake from Cold Stone Creamery. Chocolate cake. Icing on the cake. Cookie cakes.
Cakes.
Pie will win the challenge. It is a piece of cake.
Cornish pasty uber alles.
i read in NG that something like 35% of americans admit to eating pie for breakfast.
always pie.
What's NG? And is that regularly or just a once off? I have had pie for breakfast a couple of times(real pies I mean, those sweet pies for breakfast would make me sick).Quote:

Which kind of Pie Savory, Sweet or Both?
PIE WINS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Cake is obviously better.
On another note, I hate the taste of pastry (Except for sweet pastry). So it is pretty commonsense for me.
Also, a Pizza isn't classed as a pie, is it actually more of a bread. (Which is actually closer to a cake than a pie)
well too bad its 19-9 in pies favor. to eat your cake, ill have pie. :tongue:
Cake voters were too busy eating cake to vote.
and the pie voters ate pie while voting. so there.
Just to throw in, post=argument...
This is actually the reason I love pie: you could serve a European-style Meat pie as dinner, and follow it up with an American-style fruit pie. Hell, you could make a pie for just about every part of the day.Quote:
