Pie is Better than Cake

Thank you for your quick reply. "Notice that my opponent doesn't provide any support for his claim that there are more types of cake than pie. Pies can contain any filling, have crusts or no crust, different styles of crust, nuts, no nuts, etc..." My opponent neglects the fact that i did provide a source for my claim. If he chooses to look at my source, then he can go back to the first round where i provided my evidence. Never did i say that a pie does not have different flavors, I merely stated that a cake has more flavor and different varieties than pie. "I object to Con's usage of personal opinions as to which is better, as there is no end of personal opinions on both types." The use of my source was not for personal reference, but to state or rather prove the fact that a cake is more diverse in terms of flavor. Unless my opponent provides a source proving that a pie is more diverse than a cake or rather the cake, then my source still stands. "I propose that pie actually uses larger quantities of healthy, natural flavors, rather than relying on frosting and sugar." In the same sense, a cake could use large quantities of healthy ingredients. The fact is that the amount of healthy and natural ingredient an individual uses is based on the individuals choice and not the desert itself. A pie could be unhealthy in many levels. "A flaky, crispy crust, moistened by the pie filling, is a wonderful texture to taste." This might be a good texture, but it does not even compare to a firm but soft texture. A texture that holds together when cut but dissolves in your mouth. "I even argue that a shorter baking time makes pie better as it is more accessible. " A longer baking time is a sign of maturity and growth of taste. With every second, the taste grows even stronger, richer and the product reserves an elegant shape. "Cake is very cultural, but pie has deeper roots in culture. Cake is used to celebrate individual events(weddings and birthdays), but pie celebrates much more. Pie celebrates community. Family reunions. Thanksgiving." A pie is noting more than a backup plan for cake. In terms of a deeper root, a cake provides a sense of family unity. For each birthday party, a cake celebrates the increase in the unity and growth of a family. During a Family reunion, a big, firm, delicious, mouth watering, and colorful dessert is used to celebrate unity and sharing. A cake is bigger thus more accommodating to a big family reunion. In terms of Thanksgiving, a cake is one of the most important dessert. Cake as i mentioned earlier is a cultural bakery used to celebrate the coming together of individuals, the growth of individuals, and the unity of a society. "Pie is also used in pie-eating contests, showing it is a better competition dessert." This simply shows you that a pie is noting more than a street food used to quench ones hunger during times of emergencies. A pie in this situation is noting more than a piece of hot dog as it too is a "competitive meal." A cake on the other hand is used for competitions that involves skills, imagination, talent, beauty and expression. A cake allows you to work with so many elements including science. Example, food network challenge. "Some pie is actually quite firm. We have pumpkin pie, meringues, and hard creams. We also have soft fillings, such as cherry. The soft filling goes down smooth and coats your tongue in deliciousness. From personal experience, I assert that most people earth the crust of a pie, especially a warm, flaky crust that wasn't dried out. " True however, a pie is still soft without the crust. A cake is much firmer but unlike firm pie's dissolve in your moth easily. "I would present a further argument for the amazing 'better'-ness of pie. Pie charts. So many businesses are able to utilize pie-charts to quickly and effectively present ideas, increase effectiveness, and earn more money for employees and investors, who can then buy more pie." This has noting to do with edible pie. It is only called a pie chart because it is circular in nature and has smaller sections. "Lastly, pie rhymes with more cool words. Go buy some pie, It will be so good you could die. Every day I try, To visit grandma, for a slice of pie. My, oh my, I feel I could fly, Every time I eat pie!" This can also be incorporated with cakes. Go buy some *cake*, It will be so good you could die. Every day I try, To visit grandma, for a slice of *cake*. My, oh my, I feel I could fly, Every time I eat *cake*! How about this: I could use a slice of cake Men, I need me some red velvet cake! ouuwe, i could use me some Icecream and cake. Ice cream and cake, cake, cake...Ice cream and Cake!....http://www.youtube.com... On to my opponent original Argument: "Ease of speaking." This make no sense, the same goes for cake. CAKE,CAKE,CAKE...(say it ten times) The rest I already covered. Yeah!
