But in general, cake is pretty gross. I’ve had some really excellent cake, but it’s either been homemade or, in one case, a dessert at an expensive ass tapas restaurant I used to frequent. Pie, on the other hand... man. You can get a pie from bumfuck nowhere and it can still be ballin.
Not all pie, surely. Key Lime requires a deft hand. But apple pie and cherry pie are both extremely hard to fuck up.
Also, I think cheesecake is more pie than cake. It’s really not a cake at all. I wonder why it’s not just “cheesepie” ... ‘course that sounds ridiculous now, but at the inception of the thing, I imagine cheesecake sounded just as dumb.
Homemade Dutch apple pie is my thaaaang. I barely even fuck with holiday meals because for me, the main dish is the D-A-P. Oh lord.
