Is it a cake or pie?

[ICRS]

It says pie in the name, therefore it is a pie.

Is the Pie really a Cake?

 

[Crono]

IF it has a crust, it is a pie. That, sir, is a cake. This (delicious) dessert should switch designations with the cheescake.

Henceforth, cheesecake is cheesepie (or full name of Cheese Custard Pie)
and
Boston cream pie is Boston cream cake

Thus declares the Royal Dessert Magistrate.

In addition to being a cake, with no crust, it's a Dunkin Donuts flavor


(cheesecake is also cake unless it is ricotta pie)

My ass has crust. Does that qualify it as pie?

If your ass is a dessert, then yes.

Cake. Plain and simple.

So you are saying that Pie and Cake is an absolute and there are no alternatives or variations to each of them?

No, I'm just saying for general classification purposes cheesecake is pie. Technically you could probably say it's a custard pie, but it's still a pie. If you want to redefine "cake" to include cheesecakes, then you encroach on the definition of "pie" (it depends on what the meaning of the word 'is' is ). Honestly, I don't care that much, it's just something to point out during the many, many iterations of the pie vs cake discussions that pop up on these forums.

Whatever you call it, it is delicious.

I like your style. What say you to a tart cake?

The filling is godawful though.

It does not qualify as a pie.

 

[dbk]

Cake and I want to eat it.

 

[IronWing]

The balance is restored and peace and tranquility fill the land.

Boston Cream Pie is a cake and Cheesecake is a pie.

No. But it means your male sex partners need to wear a condom. Oh and you need to shower after you get sexed.

Cheesecake is not a pie.

 

[sandorski]

Says "Pie" in the name, thus making it Pie. Hence, Cheescake is "Cake"!
