Uh-oh, it's another of those pictures taken with my cell phone at the store. You know what that means.
The one time I bought this item was a couple of weeks before I decided to create this blog, which is why I didn't have one of my standard photos to go with this post. But even though it's been a while, I remember well how disappointed I was in the pie.
It was, as far as I could tell, indistinguishable from every other commercial grocery-store cherry pie out there. It was unremarkable in taste, stingy in its helping of cherries, and moderately soggy in the crust. Worst, it got moldy faster than I think is reasonable, forcing me to throw away the last quarter or so of it. (Complaining that the pie isn't very good and I had to throw some of it away because of spoilage is a lot like the old joke about the woman in a restaurant griping that the food is terrible, "and such small portions.")
Will I buy it again?
Fool me once, shame on you. Fool me twice? Not gonna happen.

This was so bad, I thought surely something must have gone wrong in the
production of it. The crust and crumbly stuff on top were just awful. The
filling was terrible.
Please understand that I LOVE cherry pie, and am willing to overlook all
sorts of things to get the cherry goodness. This had no cherry goodness.
Unless it was just a bad edition.
But if this was how this was intended to be: stay far, far away.
