"american pie" news and stories

Video of the Day: Jason Biggs makes American Pie


I know what you're thinking - Jason Biggs made American Pie many years ago. Though this is true, I'm not talking about the movie. He and Paul Walker guest star on Martha Stewart and make an actual pie this time - Sour Cherry, to be exact.

Yes, the requisite pie jokes are there (for those of you who haven't seen the movie, I'm not going to explain it here) and Martha guides Biggs and Walker as they stumble their way around the kitchen. If you have the time, check out the video - hilarity definitely ensues. These two really need to have their own cooking show. Oh, and the recipe for the pie looks pretty good too.

Tara Reid to open fast food restaurant

I'll skip over the obvious "American Fry" jokes and get right to it. Tara Reid, probably best known to the world for both her role in the American Pie movie franchise as well as her (former) globe-trotting, hard-partying lifestyle, has announced her plans to open a fast food establishment in Los Angeles.

The new restaurant, set to open on March 31st, will be named Ketchup - and though the menu has not been released as yet, Tara herself plans to spend time in the kitchen "making sure everything is done properly."

Though it may seem like a strange move to some, the restaurant business is in her blood. Growing up in New Jersey, Tara's parents owned a bar, and she currently has shares in three other restaurants - Bella, The Shore and Geisha House.

Ben & Jerry's gets political, again

A few years ago, Ben & Jerry's ice cream was sold to Unilever and the company dropped some of its social activist policies and programs. The spirit remained, but with the founders out of the game, very little non-ice cream action was undertaken. Recently, at the request of the company's new top executive, the "ageing hippie" founders have returned to work with the ice cream company and are leading a campaign that is spearheaded by their newest flavor, American Pie.

The ice cream is browns sugar and cinnamon flavored, witch chunks of apples and pie crust in it, capturing the spirit of an all-American dessert. On the carton, there are ways to get involved in the American Pie campaign, which is detailed at the Ben& Jerry's website. Their goal is to convince consumers to convince the government to change their spending priorities on issues such as education and insurance coverage.

The flavor sounds like it is one that will appeal to most ice cream (and pie) fans, but the question now is whether a love of ice cream will change anyone's political opinions - or if a difference in political opinion, or simply a desire not to have politics on ice cream packaging, will keep anyone from buying it.
