| Coconut Cream Pie isn't all that great. It's way too soggy. | |

| Well, everyone has their own likes, but I think pumpkin pie is overrated. A lot of people do not like it, yet it is a turkey day staple. | |

| I hate anything with coconut, especially coconut custard pie. Most people in my family love it but I cringe when I see it. Maybe I don't like it because when I was a kid, my brother smashed a whole one in my face and it went up my nose and I was not very happy. | |

| Pumpkin Pie is hideous. Every Thanksgiving I get one & every time I ask myself why. I think we're just conditioned to do it.
Oh, fruitcake. Fruitcake is the worst thing ever created. | |

| I would agree about coconut - I don't really care for it and am not really a fan of anything with coconut in it. I also agree about fruitcake - have never liked it and I doubt I ever will. | |

Ha....true. My dad's job that he got after retirement is working the town's recycling spot. He gets about 10 fruit cakes per year as thank you gifts...no thank you. | |

| I LOVE fruitcake, NOT the bouncy doorstops you get from the store, I found a great recipe online called white fruit cake, MMMMMMM, you soak the candy fruit in orange juice all night and probably the real reason this is so good is because I only use the candy fruit and a few raisins, no nuts, no currants, no orange peel. Here's the recipe if anybody wants to give it a try: http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/White-Fruit-Cake/Detail.aspxOkay, overrated desserts: Custard pie, custard is NOT sweet, not really, once in a while, okay, but most of the time, bleah. Chocolate pie, hate chocolate pie, never any good, always bitter and the crust is so Crisco-like. Vanilla wafers The little wafer stick cookies, seriously, does anybody like these? Any candy bar with nuts in it The cherry cordials, you know, those chocolate covered cherries with a middle layer of some kind of red syrup or something in it. Tooooooooooooo sweet, I make my own, drain maraschinos and dip them in melted chocolate bark, yum yum. Peanut brittle. Yay , break your teeth and it comes with nuts. Candy apples with nuts, what sadist could possibly like these things? | |

| Only on rare occasions can I tolerate blueberry pie, most of the time it's nasty to me. Not really a fan of apple pie either. Also whip cream is an overrated add-on IMO. | |

Oh yes, sometimes I like blueberries in things but they do NOT like me at all. But I LOVE whipped cream, I use tons of Cool Whip on pumpkin pie, ONLY way to eat it, and strawberry short cake, yuuuuuuuum yuuuuuuuum. | |

It depends on how it's made. If it's runny, then it's nasty (but that's all pies). If everything is properly baked and centered, then blueberry pie can be delicious. | |

I don't like graham crackers too. Not too long ago I tried to eat a pack of them with milk....called myself dunking them, and within 2 seconds, the shit broke off in the cup. | |

| Depending on who's making it, banana pudding can be entirely too sweet. | |
