Banana Cream Pie Day!

  Today is the day to appreciate that blissful combination of custard, cream, and banana. Oh YES. I rarely see this at the supermarket, so I keep forgetting it exists... Maybe this is actual...

I'd be fine with that.

OHhhhhhhhhh that makes sense. How about they leave out the banana and bundle it with the pie; cut the banana and top it yourself. XD

Another suggestion, maybe they could just freeze it. Then maybe the bananas won't turn brown.

    I'll have to consult She Who Must Be Obeyed about this.  I just eats'em, I'm not sure how they work.

    Reminds me of those frozen, chocolate covered bananas we used to make when I was a kid.  Yummy!

      She Who Must Be Obeyed  (SWMBO) says that freezing a banana cream pie will make the crust soggy when the pie is brought out of the freezer, and will also change the texture of the whipped cream topping.  Bananas in the pie might also change texture and color....in fact,the whole pie may end up kinda gross. 

       

      See, I would very likely eat it anyway. I may be part goat.  Mmmm, pie.

        Well... today I learned something. Haha, really interesting to know; I love learning this sort of thing. Once in a while I'll binge the Food Network or the Great British Bake Off and be fascinated by all the cool tips and tricks to making sure your creation turns out OK (Measure by weight! Blind bake! Dry out your fruits!). 

         

        In the end, even if it looks funky, I'll eat it if it still tastes good. (Ugly Delicious anyone?)
