It's "Pi" day, not that math is my favorite subject, just ask former New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie.

So instead of thinking about math, let's talk about pie. I love pie, apple, mince-meat, and my wife's "blueberry sour cream pie" which she makes every Fourth of July.

Although I don't really have a sweet tooth, preferring a salty snack 9 times out of 10, I can appreciate a good pie. The only pie I order out and even then, only from a New Jersey diner, is Lemon Meringue pie.

And as Jill Myra reminded us this morning, pie is not just a sweet treat for dessert. New Jersey has some great bakeries and pizza places specializing in the classic Tomato Pie! One of the best I've had is at DeLorenzo's in Robbinsville.

What's your favorite pie for dinner or dessert?

Here's a taste of the NJ pizza joints Dave Portnoy has reviewed

Dave Portnoy, commonly known as El Presidente, is the founder of Barstool Sports. Somewhere along the way, he decided to start reviewing local pizzerias, and the concept took off. This isn't the entire list, but it's a small sample to get you started.
