==Pie and peas==
I have never seen pie and chips in the UK, however, whether this is a regional variation or not, Pie 'n' Peas is the much better known and eaten dish.
It is even reference is the novel [[The Last Continent]] by Terry pratchett (In the form of a meat pie floating upside downin a bowl of mushy peas). Usually meat and potatos or meat/steak pie. but the usual companion is Peas. not chips.
Could someone add this in as the page is protected and i do not have a wiki account (nor do i want one) [[Special:Contributions/82.38.244.48|82.38.244.48]] ([[User talk:82.38.244.48|talk]]) 08:12, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

==History=
Pie has been around since about 2000 B.C., around the time of the ancient [[Egyptians]]. {{Fact|date=February 2008}} At some point between 1400 B.C. (the time of Greek settlements) and 600 B.C. (the time of the decline of Egypt), the pie is believed to have been passed on to the Greeks by the Egyptians. {{Fact|date=February 2008}}

From Greece the pie spread to Rome, somewhere around 100 B.C. by which time pies had already been around for some 1000 years. {{Fact|date=February 2008}} The first known pie recipe came from the Romans and was for a rye-crusted goat cheese and honey pie. {{Fact|date=February 2008}}

Pies appeared in England in the 12th century and were predominantly meat pies. The crust of the pie was referred to as the "coffyn" and there was generally more crust than filling. {{Fact|date=February 2008}} Sometimes these pies were made with fowl and the legs were left outside the pie to act as handles. For a long time the pastry crust was actually not eaten, serving only to preserve the moisture and flavour of the filling. {{Fact|date=February 2008}}

Pies went to America with the first English settlers. {{Fact|date=February 2008}} As in Roman times the early American pie crusts were not eaten, but simply pie is awesome designed to hold the filling.{{Fact|date=February 2008}}

== Cake vs. Pie ==

Will someone explain me something I never really got... what is the difference between cake and pie? --[[User:Stormwatch|Stormwatch]] ([[User talk:Stormwatch|talk]]) 16:28, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
:The main difference between cake and pie is the general structure of the dessert. Pies are typically composed of an outer crust, with a sometimes partially-liquid filling on the inside (fruit, vegetables, fish, etc.) Cakes are commonly made of one base substance; a sweet, bread-like one (what's commonly called the actual "cake"), along with other such additions like frosting, a layer of ice cream in the middle, and food or other decorations on the top, to name a few. Look at some of the pictures of [[pie]]s and [[cake]]s on their articles on here to see the difference yourself. --[[User:JamieS93|'''<font face="Bradley Hand ITC" size="3px" color="green">Jamie</font>''']][[User talk:JamieS93|'''<font face="Bradley Hand ITC" size="2px" color="blue">S93</font>''']] 02:05, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
::Thanks, that was a very nice explanation. Maybe this should be added to the article, other people may have the same doubt. --[[User:Stormwatch|Stormwatch]] ([[User talk:Stormwatch|talk]]) 22:11, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
:Also you can't get [[steak and kidney pie|steak and kidney cake]] [[User:Jooler|Jooler]] ([[User talk:Jooler|talk]]) 23:27, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
::Cakes are generally sweet and sugary, whereas pies often have meat and gravy in them.

== Favorite Pies ==

My favorite pie is pecan pie. Also, I noticed Mulberry Pie was not included on the "Sweet Pies" list. My grandma would make mulberry pie and jam from the tree in her backyard. I could not find a way to add this. And sweet potato pie and sweet potato casserole are two very different things. I would also like to here about other people's favorite kind of pie.--[[User:Wikimichael22|Wikimichael22]] ([[User talk:Wikimichael22|talk]]) 17:40, 5 April 2008 (UTC)Wikimichael22
: Your personal favorites and what your grandmother made have no relevence to an encyclopedia article about pie. -- [[User:Infrogmation|Infrogmation]] ([[User talk:Infrogmation|talk]]) 21:04, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

== Correction Needed ==
"A peculiarity of Adelaide cuisine in the Pie floater."
"In" should likely be "is," but this page being protected while being also poorly edited results in the error standing.
