?? Pie Alert! What’s Your Thanksgiving Favorite? ?? Whether you're team Pumpkin, Apple, or Pecan, a recent survey reveals some sweet insights into America's favorite holiday pies. ?? The Midwest and West prefer classic pumpkin. ?? The Northeast? It’s all about apple pie (we’re not complaining!). ?? In the South, the competition gets interesting: Pecan pie takes the lead in states like Texas and Louisiana. But Kentucky, Tennessee, Mississippi, and Alabama? They’re caught in a delicious apple vs. pecan tie—pumpkin isn’t even on the radar. Is that legal?! ?? Sugar pie makes the list in Indiana, Hawaiians choose Banana Cream, and many in the South add Sweet Potato Pie to the table. So many pies, so little time. ??
