Top Three...Pie!

Rank: #1. Lemon Meringue
#2. Apple
#3. Pumpkin

These are ranked, of course by my opinion as many others would choose something different, in consideration of sweetness, flavour, texture, and name(haha yes name)

Lemon meringue is by far the sweetest and many would argue that its not the greatest mainly because they cannot handle the degree of enchanting taste that emanates from this mouth watering delicacy. (enough vocab?) This is without any additives as some prefer whipped topping on their apple or pumpkin pie and some would not even try them without it. Lemon meringue doesn't need any additives because it comes with the included meringue, which makes it that much better.

Flavour is more of the biased side of the argument, as i prefer lemon over apples and cinnamon and pumpkin.

They all have very good texture. Pumpkin pie has no substance that you need to chew, thus making you lazy for your desert. Apple pie has substance but so much so that you still need to chew considerably before daring to swollow...unless your apple pie is soggy (in which case i wouldn't like it anyways). Lemon meringue has just enough texture to keep you from lazing about but just under whats needed for the main course of the meal...unless you just had soup... Which makes it a perfect go-between. All things in moderation afterall.

And finally the name. Pumpkin and apple are both easily spelled. (unless of course you thought pumpkin was pumkin, then you should learn it if you favor it more). Lemon meringue is considerably harder to spell and thus sounds like it is a legend in itself!

All of these i consider when deciding my desert, hence my order of rank for each. Some of you may ask what about turtle pie? Is not chocolate better than lemon? And i tell you NO! don't get me started on how bad chocolate is for you than lemon, plus chocolate is mostly refined and the taste you normaly find in say, a Snickers, can not be found naturaly. (and some of you are just wondering what the heck turtle pie is...well go research it! if you don't know your pies then you can't argue that lemon is not the greatest!)
