"A bear has broken into a Colorado bakery and chomped his way through 38 pies, even taking two for the road."

"He devoured 24 cherry and 14 apple pies - but left strawberry-and-rhubarb pies completely untouched in Tuesday night's raid."

No one wants rhubarb pie.

Colorado: legal marijuana.

A bakery cleared of sweets.

The bear was stoned.

I am Laslo.

Kylos કહ્યું...

Hey. Everybody could use a little more rhubarb pie. It's the king of pies.

Scott કહ્યું...

@Kylos: I agree! I saw "rhubarb pie" and my mouth started to water. Throw some strawberries in there if you're wussy about it.

Matt Sablan કહ્યું...

That's impressive. ... BEARRY IMPRESSIVE.

Bill Crawford કહ્યું...

He did, however, lick the rhubarb pie.

Rae કહ્યું...

Rhubarb pie is glorious. Especially since bears leave them alone in the upcoming bear apocalypse.

Abdul Abulbul Amir કહ્યું...

I love rhubarb pie. Also rhubarb jam.

Scott કહ્યું...

Bearpocalypse?

Bearnado!

Eric the Fruit Bat કહ્યું...

The joke's on the bear because it was one of the strawberry-and-rhubarb pies that contained the golden ticket.

David કહ્યું...

Call the dentist.

He'll know what to do.

CStanley કહ્યું...

That must have been a heck of a pic-a-nic basket.

Kylos કહ્યું...

@Scott, yep. Strawberries are unnecessary.

Scott કહ્યું...

A brief history of rhubarb, with pictures.

Chris N કહ્યું...

Perhaps we can say the cherry and apple were all 'black-beary' pies?

Forgive me.

rehajm કહ્યું...

I don't think the rangers gonna like that...

Scott કહ્યું...

Ranger Smith took all the rhubarb pies. Civil asset forfeiture. They might have been made with the profits of illegal drug dealing.

rhhardin કહ્યું...

It's the gay mafia again.

Yogi the black bear is caught on camera raiding a freezer for a tasty pie - after tossing out several packs of veggies

This Yogi might be smarter than the average bear, but he sure doesn't eat healthier. A couple in British Columbia, Canada, captured video of a black bear raiding their freezer for a pie - after tossing out several packages of vegetables first.

MadisonMan કહ્યું...

I've always been told that rhubarb should not be harvested in the summer, although the reason given is lost in my memory.

Is that a fable?

Jaq કહ્યું...

Hey Boo Boo!

Peter કહ્યું...

Maybe the bear ate rhubarb in the past but ate the whole plant (including the leaves), got sick, and was left with a "don't eat that again!" memory?

gregwithtwogs કહ્યું...

Lions and Tigers and now Bears! Oh My or is it Oz?

Big Mike કહ્યું...

@greg, don't forget the Fox!

Chuck કહ્યું...

The reason that bears don't require rhubarb pie is because they never feel the need to rid themselves of the taste of pain and humiliation. They just look for the next tasty pie.

gregwithtwogs કહ્યું...

Big Mike, what does the fox say?

mikee કહ્યું...

Comments at the link include two impassioned pleas that the bear not be killed, despite it's demonstrated lack of fear of humans.

I'd say that any bear who won't eat a strawberry-rhubarb pie is likely to be real trouble, and relocation at a minimum is called for in this case.

Big Mike કહ્યું...

@greg, the Fox says it's going to accommodate all the candidates in a two-tiered debate.

Birkel કહ્યું...

Let me guess:
The baker refused to bake a pie for the same-sex bear wedding?

Danno કહ્યું...

Are the authorities sure it wasn't Meade?

bwebster કહ્યું...

Wait! I love rhubarb pie.

અજ્ઞાત કહ્યું...

I love rhubarb pie w/ ice cream. The only place we could drive to lunch @ my high school and still get back in time for class was a Marie Calendar's. That meant a slice of rhubarb pie a la mode. Ppl I've met from the South think of it as a pie their grandmother made that's too country for them now. Blue state Whole Foodies, meanwhile, have discovered it.

The bear is so wrong.

Gabriel કહ્યું...

Rhubarb pie is not for everyone. That's fine, since it leaves more for the people it's meant for.

robother કહ્યું...

Good. That leaves more for me.

victoria કહ્યું...

Duh, it is a pie that makes me gag. Give me cherry pie any time.

Come to Pie and Burger in Pasadena and feast on their deliciousness.

Birkel: "Let me guess: The baker refused to bake a pie for the same-sex bear wedding?"

Winner.

Alexander કહ્યું...

Rhubarb Pie is only for people who are above average.

Birches કહ્યું...

I would have eaten the rhubarb pie first...ahhh crap. Now I want a rhubarb pie!

walter કહ્યું...

"Let me guess:

Could have made a Rhu-Paul pie.

teej કહ્યું...

Who needs the pie crust. Just give me a bowl of stewed rhubarb and I'm happy. Add some custard if you are feeling especially British-y.

James Pawlak કહ્યું...

Rhubarb custard pie is too good for all but ee,=!

"I've always been told that rhubarb should not be harvested in the summer, although the reason given is lost in my memory."

Rhubarb gets picked in late May & June. I consider June to be a summer month here in WI.

But, I see from prior posts you are wrong about many political issues so it doesn't surprise me you are wrong here, too.




paminwi કહ્યું...

Oh, and rhubarb kuchen is better than rhubarb pie!
