    Proper grammar can go a long way when trying to be sarcastic.

    Someone really needs to create a universally acceptable sarcasm font!

    Not rude as much as humor. Have a great day!

    Just for the record, I made both for Thanksgiving. (OK, daughter actually made the pumpkin pie with supervision). If someone asks if you want Pumpkin or Sweet Potato pie, the most accurate answer is "yes!".

    Same here. My wife made a sweet potato pie after we talked about this thread. The sweet potato was definitely good, but it's not going to replace pumpkin on my taste buds! Will I turn down a piece of sweet potato, no most likely not. But if pumpkin is around then it will get dibs!

    Ive never had a pumpkin pie I didn't like.
    Ive never had a sweet potato pie. Period.

    So my choice is pretty obvious :p

    Me too and I LOVE pie. Can someone send me a recipe? If it turns out good, I'll be growing sweet potatoes next year!

    My wife uses canned pumpkin and sugar in the pies. She and I differ on this matter. I prefer to use a fresh pumpkin quartered and cooked in the oven and about half the sugar she uses but with a little added maple syrup. She is starting to come around though as we've stopped using boughten crusts and she's now using her Mom's crust recipe. I also prefer fresh ground cinnamon and nutmeg ground up in the coffee grinder. I LOVE PUMPKIN PIE! She'll make the pies if I sing the Pie Song which I adapted from the movie Michael.

    I go with Pumpkin. The daughter is allergic to sweet potatoes (among many other things) so we kinda avoided it like the plague.

    The daughter went thru an "American Girl' books phase way back when and we got into the original 1600-1700's pumpkin or Norfolk million pie (million being the old English word for a melon). Not bad at all but definitely different form today's pumpkin pie. More like a vegetable pie than a dessert.
