The Great Pie Poll #1

[timepiececlock]

[Poll #171235]

I ask this because I was at fictionalley.org (HP fan forum) and someone said "I still don't understand why the H/Hr ship is called the HMS Pumpkin Pie when Pumpkin Pie doesn't even exist."

TRAVESTY!

Imagine a life without pumpkin pie.

My conclusion: Maybe she's European. Lots of European HP fans.

And so you have the poll. Unfortunately I can't see the results until I vote, so I'm going to pick the last one just for fun.

Obviously not European so I can't like take part in your poll but pumpkin pie. The best thing in the world. Pumpkin ice cream almost as good but pumpkin pie? Well those on the other side of the pond don't know what they're missing.

I know! It sounds absolutely horrid, doesn't it? I know they doesn't celebrate our Thanksgiving day obviously, but no pumpkin pie for Christmas dinners or Halloween even... ::shudder:: makes me want to start shipping out cans of pie filling & copies of recipes for the LJ people in the UK. No pie... that's just wrong. I hope they at least have pecan pie.

Pecan pie? Only as an American import. You might be able to get it on the pudding trolley at some middle-to-lowbrow restaurants, and at the US-themed ones like TGI Fridays, but it's not standard Brit food. Pecans don't grow here, I don't think.

No PECAN pie?

My god. What do you people eat for a Christmas morning sugar rush, I ask.

However, this is a bit enlightening in the sense that there's more food out there that originates from America than I thought. I used to think all we could claim as local was corn.
