From What’s Good at Trader Joe’s 2019:
“Yes, yes, I know, I coulda read the package or description a little better. Heck, even the word “pie” is kinda a big hint. But for whatever reason, my mind stopped reading after “Savory Corn” and my eyes focused instead on the picture on the package. So neat…so clean…so wedgy and delicious and, well, savory looking.
It’s gotta be corn bread, right?!?!?!? And on one of the first cool nights of fall, after the end of a long week and about to kick up the feet and relax and watch “Hocus Pocus” with the kids, nothing sounded better than a little easy to make corn bread to go with some homemade chili and beer. Sounds perfect.
Except….corn pie is not corn bread. Doh!
I’ll give you this: It definitely tastes like corn bread. There’s a certain mealiness to it, just like a good cornbread. The pie also features a lot of whole kernel corn, so there’s no mistaking it, it tastes like corn. But also a little cheddar up top, and a little light peppery spice, with ample saltiness…yup, if this were cornbread, it’d be a dang good one.
But…it’s corn pie.
In addition to all that, there’s eggs and other stuff that make this more like maybe a souffle or casserole. It’s not quite eggy enough to border on quiche. So it’s kinda wet and a bit watery and super dense. The pie is extremely filling.”
