 | | A pie is a baked dish with a pastry shell that covers or completely contains a filling of meat, fish, vegetables, fruit, cheeses, creams, chocolate, custards, nuts, or other sweet or savoury ingredient. |
 | | Throwing a pie in a person's face has been a staple of film comedy since the early days of the medium, and real life pranksters have taken to targeting celebrities with their pies (often called "pieing"). |
 | | Pie itself may be an inherently funny word, or it may be that it is the thought of actual pie which adds humor to a situation. |
