The number one pie enjoyed by families across America is pumpkin once again. Thirty-six percent of those surveyed favored it over pecan pie, which came in a distant second at 17 percent.
In other survey results,pumpkin pie is enjoyed most in the West and least in the South. That's not a surprising statistic because Southerners love their sweet potato pies loaded with lots and lots of sugar. A dentist's dream.
Apple pie came in third with 14 percent, followed by sweet potato at 10 percent, chocolate 9 percent, lemon meringue 4 percent, blueberry and cherry tied at 3 percent and strawberry at 2 percent.
Of course, while this survey may or may not be relevant, Delta Dental's message is that whatever pie you eat this holiday season that you "remember to take the time to brush and floss away the sugary remnants."
Good advice.
