AHA!!!! The old Lenten Death Pies. Damn Papists trying to kill us all with their Protestant Popovers filled with the blood of Lutheran babies. Probably baked in the firey ovens of Hell by the Satanic Chef himself, Pope Lucifer.

You can’t fool me. I’uns been to college.

Government workers to the rescue!!

Oh Jeez, people are dropping like flies by eating poisoned pies!

Ban them all!

Ban everything!

Wake up and ask a bureaucrat what to eat, eat nothing till they tell you its ok.

I’ll stop now.

"After it was determined that the pies were home-baked, the inspector decreed they couldn't be sold."

I WANT PIE!

THIS is what p*sses me off about government.

They take what is supposed to be something for public health, restaurant kitchen checks, and go to the Nth degree.

SO WHAT if a pie is home baked?
The kitchen it was baked in was probably cleaner than the restaurant kitchen the bureaucrat wants it to be from.

SHEEESH, is it time yet?

This event brings to mind that old story about the tech support guy telling a customer that she was too stupid to own a computer. As hard as it is to believe, this inspector is too stupid to be in government.

Up the price of the meal a Dollar and give the pie away free.

The problem wasn’t that the pies were home-baked, it’s that the lady had an unfair amount of pie relative to the rest of the community. The official intervened merely to ensure a fair and just redistribution of baked goods.

/sarcasm, but also probably coming to pass in the near future under the current administration.

This was kinda ‘resolved’ in a way that can only occur in Sw. PA.

Local (Pittsburgh) TV covered this initially by sending camera crews to the Church to interview the nice little bubbas’ who bake. Next week, same camera crews, but this time every County commisioner/Dem pol showed up (they showed table of ‘suits’ at the Fish Fry eating pie). It actually was funny...the decision was made that an ‘amendment’ or some such nonsense would be added to the health code to accomodote ‘more than six times in a row—ie, Lent’ there would be have to be inspections, but the Lenten six week time frame was ‘safe.’

Grandmas ‘win.’ Health Department Inspector gets reassigned. County politicians get free face time.

A win all the way around.

I'm breathlessly awaiting the day when one of these government paid busybodies gets the living hell kicked out of him for this kind of crap.

Throw in a good dose of tar and feathers and that will be one great day.

They should stop at any Dunkin Donuts and count the flies on everything but the menu.

I thought that this must be satire but it wasn't:


After a state crackdown forbidding the sale of homemade pies, members of St. Cecilia Catholic Church in Rochester, Pa., proceeded with their annual Lenten fish fries anyway. The pie flap helped draw healthy crowds.
