Let's here it for lard! I mean, IF yer gonna eat a slice of pie, why not have a GOOD crust? Tender and flakey and not a pile of mushy goo... top OR bottom.

Fer gosh sakes! It's PIE. It's meant to be a decadent treat. Do it right. Just don't eat two slices in one day.... if ya do, well, yer gonna be a lardass.
