Episode 217: The Key Lime Pie Frodown
Posted by: Gregory Ng: The Frozen Food Master
There are pies that make you smile and pies that make you pucker. When a key lime pie is the real deal it makes you do both. Now, I have had some pretty phenomenal key lime pies in my life and those that rate high in my book have one thing in common, The Wicked Tart (pronounced Taht) Factor or as I like to call it, the “WTF”. It is only those types of pies that truly deserve the name: Key Lime Pie.
In this frodown, I taste test 3 key lime pies head to head to head. The contenders: Sara Lee Key Lime Pie, Edwards Key Lime Pie, and Smart Ones Key Lime Pie. Who will come out victorious? The Frozen Food Master will tell you!
This episode and the rest of the episodes published this week are inspired by Evan Kleiman’s Pie-A-Day Project. You think I have it bad defrosting pies, Evan is baking a pie every day this summer!
