*The first "pie" was actually meat pie and shepherd's (potato) pie. Sweet pie came later.

*Mark Twain, (1880-1910) used to eat half a Huckleberry Pie a day! ...During a depressed phase of his life. Hmmm...Huckleberry Finn is making more sense now:
Mark Twain, was a big fan of eating pies. According to The American Heritage Cookbook, Katy Leary said in her book on Mark Twain: She ordered a pie every morning, she said, recalling a period in which Twain was depressed. "Then I'd get a quart of milk and put it on the ice, and have it all ready - the huckleberry pie and the cold milk - about one o'clock. He eat half the huckleberry pie, anyway, and drink all the milk."
