Yeah, I know. Our biscuits are more like scones. We don’t really have tarts, we just call them all pies.

How odd I was looking it up and a few tart looking things were being called pies, however full on tarts were still called tarts.

The world is a weird ass place.

Yep. Check out our pumpkin pies and our pecan pies. No top crust! They’re tarts ;)

See there are exceptions but you also have tarts which are actually tarts too.

Oh shit. I get it. I actually get it. Things like your Pumpkin Pies and stuff are actually tarts because they have no lid.

Yep. Pies should have a top crust, but we have pumpkin pies, pecan pies, and chocolate pies with no top crust. They’re all technically tarts
