Fascinating look at the much maligned Boston Cream, ahem, Cake. I never knew the Illumanati were behind this, and yet I always wondered why it was called pie. Interesting…
Oh, so it’s pick on Boston day is it? Well what about China? Chicken fingers? Really. And how about ‘lobster sauce’ not even the “tamale” goes into ‘lobster sauce’ and while I’m at it.. Where is the duck in DUCK SAUCE? So take your picayune crusade on tour to somewhere besides my beloved city.. Boston cream cake, indeed!
Thanks for enlightening folks on this sacrilege, Carl. 😉 I’ve had to explain this distortion to a few folks. But I’ll eat it no matter what it’s called.
I can see you are passionate about this subject. Personally? I don’t care what you call them, I will take them, eat them and not care the consequences.
Hmmm… it does seem weird it would be called a pie, although I hadn’t thought about it before. Whether they call it a pie or a cake, I wouldn’t mind trying a slice of it 🙂
I love Shepherds Pie but actually it is a casserole as I cook it in glass baking dish. However, if top and bottom pastry layer it would qualify as a pie . Do you know if it originated in England, Whales, Ireland or perhaps that night in Bethlehem ? Next they will try to convince us that tomatoes are amphibians.
If the Illuminati would leave it at Boston Creme Cake, I wouldn’t be so miffed with them, yet they even have distorted other things that causes distress, like we drive on parkways and park in driveways. They have insisted that alright is a correct spelling for all right. They need to go back to school and learn under teachers that have the patience to deal with their foolishness and refuse to be bought off.
As I started to read this, Carl, I thought, “I need to tell him that it’s Boston Cream Pie,” wishing to flaunt my expertise as a Bostonian. Very quickly, I realized that I had met the enemy, and it was me.
While I did not create this diabolical situation, I certainly have done my part to sustain it and — even worse — never to question it.
Is our relationship over, Carl, now that you know all this? Can we still continue to connect? I hope so.
