Pie usually has a crust with filling. Apple pie, Blueberry pie, Pot pie, etc...

Cake has the "bread" inside and usually has icing. No icing on pie.

I'm going to vote for cake, especially if it's really rich chocolate cake with raspberry sauce. *drool*

1: long pinkish sour leafstalks usually eaten cooked and sweetened [syn: pieplant] 2: plants having long green or reddish acidic leafstalks growing in basal clumps; stems (and only the stems) are edible when cooked; leaves are poisonous [syn: rhubarb plant]

The leaves are poisonous. Oh that would make me feel really great when eating it. I would make sure the person that made the pie took the first bite. :P

Bah. Apple seeds are filled with arsenic and are very poisonous. Do you always make someone else eat that first bite of apple pie?

I'm sorry, it's cyanide, not arsenic. You can get the Straight Dope on this topic. It sounds like eating a cup of raw apple seeds would be dangerous, but less than that is okay.

Cooking the seeds removes the dangerous enzymes. I wonder if the same can be said for rhubarb leaves?

first, cyanide isn't an enzyme. second, cooking things doesn't remove enzymes, it denatures them (twists them all out of shape so they don't work the same way any more). thirdly my brother ate rhubarb leaves once. he got slightly sick to his stomache, but was in so sort of danger at all, i don't think they're very poisonous.
