Pie or Crumble

Fortunately nothing more than an old wives tale and utter gobshite. I have had both together and the only ill effect that I suffered was an overwhelming need for more. Fortunately sated by eating some more.

I've just google this and your right, I blame el squires sister. She is the one spreading lies.

Or is she?

@tsk I shall fight against this with every fibre of my crumble loving being

You'll be first against the wall...

the wall of a deep dish pie tin.

I love how Pickle voted for everything.

I like a bit of pickle with my pie...

Ever the pragmatist, I like my pies crumbly.

And my crumbles crusty.

How can you see votes? I thought my vote would have been in secret? Damn polls, that's the last time

Crumble for moi.
I had the most amazing crumble in france, with oats and crushed cornflakes as a topping to apple, raisin and cinnamon. Perfect fuel after a day snowboarding.

Less of a crumble and more of a crinkle, I'd say... Disallowed...

A shameless cut and paste:

All parts of the rhubarb plant contain oxalic acid, a substance which, in combination with some nutrients (especially calcium salts), can be difficult to digest. However, the amount of oxalic acid present in rhubarb is small enough that it won't normally cause any problems. Pineapples contain a range of acids but hardly any oxalic acid; mixing rhubarb with pineapple will increase the overall amount of acid you are eating, but will barely increase the amount of oxalic acid at all. The only possible detrimental effect of adding pineapple to rhubarb could come from the strong enzymes in pineapple that break down proteins. If you hold fresh pineapple against your gums for a few minutes they tingle - the enzymes are eating into the proteins of your gums. There is a small amount of protein in the rhubarb's cell walls; if this is destroyed by the pineapple, it could make the cells weaker and easier to break, letting the oxalic acid out more easily. So you might taste more oxalic acid, but you wouldn't ingest any more. I don't think this is an issue.

thats a very fair point - you connoisseur you....
Withdrawn.

I made plum crumble this year from plums pilfered from local trees.
It was the best crumble I've ever had.
I'm a recent convert to crumble, and I too add rolled oats to the crumble mix. It gives it more texture.
Saying that, pies win.
You can't just say, 'ooh, i mean for puddings only!'
That's like asking Tanks or Submarines, then saying, 'Ooh, I' meant for intercontinental ballistic warfare only.'
too specific.
I'm not a proper pudding kind of bloke anyway.
Give me a meat and potato pie any day.

tags are killing me!

fucking ace.
