the farm/nutrition class also taught the students about other ways to cook and serve fruits and vegetables. i know the professor who takes the students there and she has talked about how they are also hoping to get a cow!

This country really need to wake up to the meat pie. Without it you're only enjoying half the pie universe. It's easy, just brown some meaty chunks and onions, throw in some stock, red wine and Lea & Perrins. Simmer the whole thing for an hour, then por it into a pie crust, top it with shortcrust, then bake it for 40 minutes.

Heh. Even better, #6: as pie consumption has dropped, obesity has skyrocketed. More pies: less obesity.

You know what? I had a horrible time trying to find it too. They could do a better job of making it more visible--but I guess that's not part of the curriculum yet. :)

YES! This place is awesome. The wonderful people at Underdog in the Sunset, 18th and Irving, serve up these pies in their corn-based biodegradable plastic containers. Max told me "We like to cook it like we roll." Mission Pie and Underdog rocking the green living.

Delicious pie? All organic? Fair trade coffee? Staying open late? I just found my new favorite spot. Thank you sfist, thank you thank you thank you!

Did anyone know that pie consumption in America has decreased significantly over the past 25 years? I am dedicated to doing everything I can to change this shocking trend...

#2, my doctor told me I need more pies in my diet, so this is perfect for me.

Mission Pie rocks. That place has a comfy homey wholesome vibe. Those walnut tartlets are delicious. They also have two varieties of tasty fair trade organic coffee. And that combine they bought is going to the farm down by Half Moon Bay where they grow all of their stuff. They had a map on the wall where they were tracking the progress and indicating what kinds of pie the truck driver was eating on his drive out from Michigan. The nutrition skills bit was part of a nutrition class at Mission High where they're trying to get the kids into eating organic and non-processed foods. But you're right, Guest. Pie isn't exactly the most nutritious stuff in the world. - (NotSFist)Jeremy

"Nutrition skills?" Pies are just sugar and fruit wrapped in a flour crust, no? I have a hard time imaging how much nutrition skills one could learn from a pie. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a pie-hater. This sounds like a great idea and a place I'd like to check out, but "nutrition skills" when talking about pies made me laugh.
