I thought the same thing when I saw it today & DH invited SS over for burgers tomorrow night - Music City Missy - 9:53pm on 06/12/09

and what's cool is, you can make little ones for tea parties..mmmm.... pulled pork minis! [NT] - cheezz - 7:25pm on 06/13/09

Yes, the recipe says to price the crust and then blind bake for 10 min which I did & - wigs - 8:41am on 06/14/09

Not 'price' but 'prick'! [NT] - wigs - 8:43am on 06/14/09

Even though I haven't perfected pie crusts I can tell you this - Music City Missy - 10:27am on 06/13/09

KC, glad you liked it. It's truly a secret ingredient...more - Richard in Cincy - 9:43am on 06/17/09

Not even Whole Foods? I know you don't have Sweetbay, that's where to find it here. I've seen it - Curious1 - 10:05am on 06/15/09

Whole foods is not close to me but I will call them today. I'm wondering - orchid - 9:58am on 06/16/09
