Ten paragraphs in the excerpt and no reason for the arrest per the thread title.

Will look at the recipe, which if it is from the olden days of the Florida Keys— the whipped eggs are “cooked” quite literally by the extra tart Key lime juice which is blended into the pie custard. The juice cooks the eggs. The pie was a way to use up eggs which were going to go bad in the un-refrigerated days of yore.

Later a meringue of whipped sugared egg whites was layered on top and the pie browned in an over. Light browned whipped egg whites on top of the lime juice cooked whole eggs. There was never any green food coloring added. The pie came out as a light yellow green... tart and delicious in what was later a pressed graham cracker crust.

The measure of how real the pie was— was it was so tart you had to have a lot of milk to drink with it. Fantastic dessert, all Florida.

Sounds like a Babylon Bee headline.

The key lime pie down in that neck of the woods is definitely good, no doubt about it, but there is this one place that makes key lime coconut cake ... (insert pic of Homer Simpson drooling)

I love key lime pie but haven’t had any in a long time.

As a Florida boy, I grew up with and love Key Lime Pie. I won’t be following this recipe and making one though. Publix - which I also grew up with - opened up a store near me up here in Charlotte so I can just get ‘em there.

From the web:

To the food stealers,
It has been about a month now since my brownies started disappearing randomly. Even though my name was on the tub. My husband helped my 9yo daughter bake them for me, so I hope you enjoyed them as much as I couldn’t My previous fridge notes fell on deaf ears, so I decided to take more direct action.
So I made an anonymous report to HR Something about culture of drug use and the potential liability to the company blah blah. That is why we all had to do a random drug screen yesterday.
And did I forget to mention that for the last two weeks I have been spiking the brownies with marijuana? Not much, not enough to give

The great noir-animation “Key Lime Pie.”

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=auyXxSEpAbo

It should be noted that some years ago, the Florida legislature had a very protracted and bitter debate over whether the “state pie” should be Key Lime or Pecan. It ran for weeks and had the solemnity of a life or death struggle. Finally Key Lime pie won. As someone noted, “the debate was cutthroat, precisely because the stakes were so small.”

“MSNBC guest host Jason Johnson said Tuesday on “The ReidOut” that Gov. Ron DeSantis (R-FL) will be hurt by Florida’s “crystal meth and alligator” reputation if he runs for president.”

But what about alligators on crystal meth?
