NATIONAL APPLE PIE DAY – May 13
Sat May 13th

National Apple Pie Day

National Apple Pie Day, America's most popular dessert, is celebrated annually on May 13th.

In 1381, the first apple pie recipe was published in England. Good apples, good spices, figs, raisins, pears, saffron, and cofyn (a form of pastry crust) were among the list of ingredients on the list.

While the apple pie existed long before the Pilgrims landed on the eastern shores of what is now The United States, Americans wax poetic about how American apple pie is made. For more than a hundred years, the phrase "as American as apple pie" has been used.

Pie gained a bad reputation during the twentieth century, when whole toasted cereals were becoming the "health food" fad. Apple pie saved the day of sorts by being more nutritious than other pies, according to some.

When Teddy Roosevelt was served an American apple pie while traveling in Africa, he was delighted to have a glimpse of home.

Soldiers during World War II were often quoted as fighting "for Mom and apple pie." Advertisers used the patriotic link with a commercial jingle "Baseball, hot dogs, apple pie, and Chevrolet" in 1970.
