Rhubarb pie. What the hell is rhubarb and who would want to put it in a pie?

Mincemeat pie also sounded gross. Just what kind of meat were they putting in it, anyway?

I'll take your rhubarb pie...I love the stuff.

We had rhubarb plants in our backyard when I was little. Most of it never ended up in pies...we'd eat the stalks dipped in sugar, just like that.

*drool*

Dude, I forgot about Rhubarb pie, that was some nasty stuff. Mincemeat pie was a close second. To this day I wonder who the hell eats, and enjoys this stuff?
