Cake or pie?

[Husar]

I don't really get the difference, even the translation seems to be the same, so I voted Gah!

[Hosakawa Tito]

I can't decide so I'll take a piece of both, please!

Pies are cooked in crusts, and are filled with some sort of fruit (apple, cherry, etc.) or other appropriate filling (ranging from pumpkin to the delectable innards of a pecan or custard pie.)

Cakes are bigass piles of sweet breading with some frosting.

(Plus pie can be used as a sexual euphemism.)

[Husar]

Well in that case I should have voted cake, definitely.

[naut]

Both?

Cake Always went well with Milk :-)

Oh pies. Especially potato-topped pies, but any pie is good pie (except burnt ones, or ones that have the habit of burning your fingers with boiling gravy).

I'd find pie-arousing pictures but Google is inferior for pie pics.

[Moros]

Pie always prevails in the end! Yes we're leading!

Wha?!.....What the.....?!! How??!!! How can someone describe a cake in so harsh a manner??!!
A cake is a soft springy delight, can be flavoured with the most tantalizing flavours in the world, and can be topped off with all that is good and tasty, from choclate bits and vanilla ice-cream, to apple jam with cherries........and while I'm not christian by religion, I still believe that a christmas cake is one of the best desserts ever concieved by mankind!

If you are referring to the vile concoction the British call Christmas pudding ... I am not going to say it. *calming down*

I do not know what the British concocted, the cake I talk of is choclate, crisp, moistened only slightly on the inside with syrup, flavoured with a touch of cinnamon, filled with nuts, raisins and plums...........ahh......

It has a thin crust of crushed Hobnobs at the bottom and have a thick layer of the philidelphia cheese and strawberry jelly mixture on top.

That would be something like a pudding I believe......

[Reverend Joe]

Nah, cheesecake is pie. It has a crust.

And no matter how wonderful or delectable any country's cakes may be... to me, it's all just cake. Just big slabs of sweet bread and whipped sugar.

So vulgar... so uncivilized.

Edit: India, stop describing that cake... you're gonna make me puke.

Is that what constitutes cake in your county? No wonder pie is better.

Which category does cheese cake fall under?
