Thread: Pi Day pies: what's your favorite pie?

    Pi Day pies: what's your favorite pie?

    Pi Day - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

    Pi Day 2014 celebrated throughout the United States - CNN.com

    Math geeks and pastry bakers rejoice: today is Pi Day! Yes, Pi is 3.14, and today is March 14, so this is Pi Day! (Oh, and it's also the birthday of legendary academic genius Albert Einstein, too.) And what better way to celebrate Pi Day than by eating pies, especially if they have the pi symbol on it?

    Pi is defined as the ratio of the circumference (perimeter) of a circle to its diameter, which is approximately 3.14, though the decimal can seemingly go on for seemingly infinity, so we'll just stop at that. And fittingly enough, pies, the pastries that we eat (or throw in others' faces), are most often circles.

    In honor of Pi Day, what's your favorite pie? I like pretty much any kind of fruit pie.

    Chocolate mousse, banana cream, and peanut butter fudge are my favorites! I like pumpkin as well, but it isn't a favorite favorite.

    I used to despise fruit pies, but I've come around to apple pie a la mode. Good stuff. I've also been considering trying key lime lately because as off-put I've been about it all my life, something about it just makes me want to give it another shot.

    Oh ! So that's Pi Day. Holy hell, I was so scared on Tumblr yesterday, I thought that everybody was going crazy.



    Don't do pie sorry, dinner or pudding.

    Why has every pie in this thread so far been sweet and not savoury? What is wrong with you people! Beef Pie with tomato sauce all the way

    Why celebrate Pi Day on just a single day, when the whole month can be Pi Month?

    I like most pies. Apple pies seems to be my favorite, I think.

    You get the hell out of here with your beef and tomato sauce pies. I won't have it tainting my chocolate mousse.

    Chicken Pot Pie is pretty darn good though.

    Chicken and Veg pies are glorious. A wee Scotch pie is nice from time to time too. I do like apple pies as well, though! I think the only pie I will actively avoid is steak and kidney, eugh.

    I already said "approximately" in my post; did you not see it?

    Yes, March 2014 is in fact 3 and 14. The next two digits in the seemingly infinite decimal are 1 and 5, so next year will be 3/14/15. or 3.1415. Get it?
