Whether it's Pi Day, Thanksgiving, or just a Monday, I love finding any excuse to enjoy a big slice of pie. There's just something about digging into that buttery, flaky piecrust with a warm (or chilled) filling. I have yet to meet a pie flavor I don't like, but if given the option, I'll likely go with whatever fruit pie is available. It's even more enjoyable to me if it's some sort of berry pie—especially now that spring is here! Gurney's Seed & Nursery Co. recently revealed the most popular fruit pies by state, and I had to see where my state landed. Spoiler alert: My current state (Iowa) and home state (Missouri) both went to strawberry pie, which I believe is an excellent choice. While there aren't many major head-turners (Thanksgiving cranberry pie sparked confusion last year), the results might surprise you. See which fruit pie your state landed on and whether you agree.

stinky tofu was the only food I would not try in China. It looked and much worse smelled like stir fried vomitus.
I love pineapples and the only time I heard of a pineapple pie was watching a documentary about some New York flop house and an old man on there mentioned a pineapple pie.
I looked it up at the time and most things I found seemed to indicate it was a thing around the 50’s and it was an icebox type pie.
hahahahaha dingleberry pie, that’s surely a Jen Psaki pie.
The press can hound her like they did Sarah Huckabee.
I cant blame ya, and I dont mind fermented things
There is an icebox cake called pig pickin cake that is pineapple, mandarin oranges, vanilla pudding, whipped cream.
Delicious
I’m partial to strawberry-rhubarb. They know about that pie in Maine?
Oh hell yeah
That got me started trying to find out if anyone grows pineapples in AZ. The verdict seems to be that you can grow them OK in containers indoors, so I think we’ll try it. I really like pineapple (I’ll even put it on pizza, but that topic’s been done to death), though I’ve never seen pineapple pie.
She was a merengue girl, too, and was quite picky about it, too.
There was some kind of a baked round thing you could fill with fruit. I can still see her making it.
You had to have a keen lemon merengue that wasn’t too lemony. Later on, she became a fan of Key lime pie.
Cranberry pie for NJ doesn’t surprise me as we grow that and blueberries in large numbers down in the Pine Barrens. Blueberry pie with frozen vanilla custard is the bomb. And pie is ALWAYS better than cake. If you serve me a “sheet” cake I will turn into Walter Sobchek in a bowling alley.
That would be Washington, DC.
Shoe-fly was my fave as a child.
Well, we are all a bunch of hobbits from Middle-earth. :)
Nope. She lived and lived Quakers and Amish, though.
Sauerbraten stank up the house for three days!
We ate schemer kase and kept a Sunday table of 7 sweets and seven sours.
I won’t necessarily turn down strawberry-rhubarb pie, but straight rhubarb is so much better.
Anyway no northerner would be caught dead eating applesauce pie. Applesauce belongs right alongside the pork chops.
Grape Pie the Pennsyltucky favorite? Hogwash! More fake news!
