BOSTON! LETS GO PATRIOTS!!!
way too tough of a choice for me. I guess it really depends on the season.
Apple is actually not my most favorite. I like apple crisp or apple crumble but not a big fan of the pie form.
Other than that just about any other pie will do:D I think my first choice would be a tie between blueberry or peach, oh wait pumpkin is really good as well as cherry. Argh, I just can't make up my min[huh]

Where's Lemon Meringue?

Since according to this poll it's apparenty not a valid form of pie, I voted for apple; my second choice. A-la mode, natually. :)

Mud pie . . . odd.

Bad Pie

There is no such thing as bad pie, just some are better than others! :)
Sadly, there is definitely such a thing as bad pie. Last time I tried to make a pie with SCRATCH MADE CRUST, I must confess I handled the dough a LITTLE too much, and it came out like petrified linoleum. Not good. You don't want to lose a filling from a chocolate cream pie. Now I just stick to ready made crust.
But when someone puts too much sugar in an apple pie and murders the tartness, or just puts too much cornstarch in the filling and it turns into glue, then I tend to take it a little too personally and get seriously homicidal thoughts. Yes, lard crust is the best, but I have a problem with killing piggies. (Cats look down on people, dogs look up to people, pigs look at people as equals.)
BTW, I make a mean Pecan Pie, with chocolate chips in the filling. (Recipe came from a Dear Abby column, actually.) Drop dead delicious, but a little rich.

Blackberry pie!!! i used to pick buckets of them by the side of the road and make pies with my mom, but after the Oakland Hills Fire they decided they were a fire hazard and cleared most of 'em out with all the other overgrowth they decided was basically tinder. :(

Plain egg custard in a lard crust. Yummmmmmmmmmmm.

it really is that lard crust that makes the difference.
my wonderful Nebraskan grandma has a deep-freeze filled side to side with buckets of lard, i never knew until a few years ago that is why her pie crust always came out so good... i am glad i didn't know back when i was a vegetarian lol

Not much of a desserts guy myself, and when I do indulge I'm partial to key lime, but the description fits, I guess.

How come I'm the only one that voted for blueberry pie? Maybe it's an acquired taste. To me it just tastes like all things summer. Every year I look forward to the blueberry season. I guess I love all things blueberry-
blueberry panackes, waffles, muffins, bread, syrup, preserves, vinagrette, and even wine.

I just had a great mid'day snack. A slice of fresh blueberry pie and 2 scoops of chocolate ice cream. Yummo!!:)
