Sweet & Silly: Celebrate Blueberry Pie Day! 🫐🄧

Get ready to indulge in fruity deliciousness, because April 28 is Blueberry Pie Day! Whether you're a die-hard dessert lover or just here for the crusty laughs, this delightful holiday is the perfect excuse to bake, eat, and share one of America’s juiciest treasures—blueberry pie. 🫐

From its humble beginnings to hilarious trivia, gift ideas, and pie-tastic celebration tips, we’re serving up everything you need to make this holiday berry unforgettable.


🫐 A Slice of History: Where Did Blueberry Pie Come From?

While blueberries are native to North America and were a staple food for Indigenous tribes, blueberry pie didn’t make its debut until European settlers arrived and brought pie-making traditions with them. These clever cooks combined local blueberries with flaky, buttery crusts to create a sweet sensation that’s now a classic at everything from Fourth of July picnics to grandma’s kitchen table.

Interestingly, the first printed blueberry pie recipe showed up in American cookbooks in the late 1800s. And just like that, a legend was born.


šŸ˜‚ Funny (and Juicy) Facts About Blueberry Pie

Let’s face it—blueberry pie isn’t just tasty. It’s also a little messy, a lot nostalgic, and occasionally the reason for purple-stained teeth. Here are some deliciously silly facts you may not know:

  1. Blueberry pie filling is sneaky. It explodes faster than popcorn when you try to eat it hot. Trust us—don’t bite into it right out of the oven unless you like lava lips. 🄵

  2. Blueberries are ā€œnature’s ink.ā€ One pie can ruin a shirt, a tablecloth, and your dignity in seconds.

  3. It’s a dentist’s nightmare. Nothing says ā€œmysteryā€ like a smile full of blue seeds after dessert.

  4. The world’s largest blueberry pie weighed over 2,000 lbs. Talk about a crustworthy achievement!

  5. People fight over crust styles. Lattice, full-top, or crumb? Families have been divided over less.
