CAKE VS PIE. Take your side!

Reasons why pie is better than cake:

1. Apple Pie is an iconic American item. Not cake. Therefore, cake is unpatriotic.

Lol pie didn't start from America, so its not patriotic (source)

No, but it's considered an American icon. The origins and early forms of Baseball weren't invented in America, but is Baseball still considered "America's pastime"? Of course it is. Americans have made variation to the Apple pie, and as a result it has become an icon.

2. Like I said earlier, you can put fruit into pies. Sure, you can top cake with fruit, but it isn't the essence of the cake, unlike pie.

Have you not heard of a fruit cake? Last time i checked it got bits of fruits in it

Okay, I will admit, you got me on this one. However, there are more varieties of fruit pies than cakes.

3. More variety of pies than there are cakes.

List of cakes <-- (Sorry, this was supposed to be a link)

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_pies

The # of cakes in the list is 66, but the number of pies in mine is 117. Nearly 2x as much.

4. You can eat pie for breakfast. It's normal to eat pie for breakfast. Eating cake for breakfast is just wrong.

This is your opinion, people find eating pizza for breakfast is just wrong. So you cant put your preferences on cake

Okay, I will admit this is opinion.

5. Referring back to #1, you also eat Pumpkin PIE for Thanksgiving, not cake. Therefore, without a doubt, pie is more American.

Again pie did not start from America, People do eat cake for thanksgiving. I'm one of those people that had cheesecake on the table along with pie

I know pie didn't come from America, but it doesn't change the fact that it isn't American. Again we have our own variations, so they're in a sense American. Sure, people may eat cake for thanksgiving, but it isn't common. Name a cake you would traditionally eat for Thanksgiving. Exactly. Traditionally, pumpkin pie is eaten. According to Wikipedia, cheesecake is considered both a cake and a pie, so your argument is nullified on the basis of perspective. I might perceive cheesecake to be a pie and you might perceive it to be a cake.

6. You can eat warm pie, but warm cake is just nasty.

Cold pie is just nasty

Now you are the one stating opinion. Pie can traditionally be eaten both cold and warm. Cake is usually eaten cold. Name the last time you have eaten warm cake. Please don't lie to yourself as well just for argument. I can name several occasions where I have had both warm and cold pie.

7. Cake is just filler. It's spongy and full of holes.

Cakes are not full of holes. Have you seen unique cakes?
Spoiler

I honestly didn't see where you were going with this. I meant full of holes as in the actual cake itself. The inside. It's light and spongy.

8. Pie is used in math, both for charts and the number.

If this is the case, cakes forms are used to make buildings.

I didn't see where you were going with this either.

9. You usually only eat cake for special occasions, pie can be eaten anytime.

You can eat cake anytime reason its sold all the time. You dont see a variety of pies in the stores as you do with cake.

Umm, that's usually because most of (not all of) the cakes in a store are of the birthday variety. Pies however, can be bought in specialty pie shops and places like Village Inn. Plus pies are easier to make out of your own home, granted you have the ingredients. Cakes however require many different decorating equipment.

10. Oreo cream pie. That is all.

Oreo Cake. That is all

Touche.

11. Cake in itself is pretty tasteless, so it requires frosting to make it taste good. Pie doesn't need anything covering it to make it taste good.

Cake doesn't need frosting to taste good, you can have a cake with only cherry filling and it will still taste good.

Okay, I will make an exception. Most cake requires frosting. Still even some cakes with fruit in them have frosting or some sort of cream. See: Black Forest Cherry Cake.

Final note: According to Wikipedia again, cobblers fall under the category of pies, adding more deliciousness factor.
