I smell a food fight comming along! What's the Big Whoop?

Maine legislature is pushing for the Whoopie Pie to become the state's dessert. Frankly I don't have the slightest idea as to why. Pennsylvania wants it to be their state dessert, and with good reason, a number of sources trace the recipe to Amish country in Pennsylvania.

Maine has a state berry, the wild blueberry, and has assigned the quirky, albeit loved Moxie as it's official soft drink. Now with this said, in my opinion, it's almost a no-brainer as to what our official dessert should be - Blueberry Pie.

I mean sure Maine does hold some nostalgia for the Whoopie Pie, which does put these creamy, oozy, lardy confections in the state's running...but is that enough? Honestly I don't think that we should be holding this dessert on a silver platter when it's main ingredient is lard. Makes me squirm. Gross.

Maybe we should change it up altogether and suggest Chocolate Mousse as our State Dessert. At least then we'd have a little play on word action with our state animal, the Moose. Done deal.
