IN RESPONSE TO THE QUESTION OF THE DAY. from a few days ago

Reasons why Cheese cake is actually a pie, rather than a cake. i consulted one of my best friends in the entire world: Scalzi. he writes


Jon,

Pie. While I do enjoy carrot cake I submit that cheesecake (a misnomer, as it is actually a pie from the custard family) is the more important and ultimately superior sector-shaped dessert.

First, delivery. Cakes crumble and often disintegrate at the slightest provocation not having the fortitude to withstand handling. Cheesecakes, on the other hand, were first conceived during the Middle Ages as a formidable (and tasty) siege weapon. To this day this formidable custard retains the same cohesion that allowed this ancient custard to be flung from catapults at defenders upon the walls.

Second, topping. While the cheesecake is clearly tasty enough to enjoy unadorned (unlike the cake which must be frosted), a myriad of flavors and toppings have emerged to enhance our pie eating experience. Furthermore, while the cake frosting has devolved into a hideously colored mishmash of food coloring, powdered sugar and vegetable shortening, the cheesecake topping has remained true and pure---caramel, chocolate and fruits sauces.

Finally, two words: graham crackers. Really, need I say more?
