Apple Pie Order, Food Quotes
“....No phrase is more carelessly or frequently used than the saying, 'Apple-pie order.' How few who say so reflect at the time upon either apple-pie or the true order of apple-pie! Perhaps they have been reared without instruction. They may have been born in families that were ignorant of apple-pie; or who were left to the guilt of calling two tough pieces of half-cooked dough, with a thin streak of macerated dried apple between them, of leather color, and of taste and texture not unbecoming the same, - an apple-pie!”
Henry Ward Beecher (1813-1887)
