![]() It's the joy of being able to taste a lemon meringue pie without having to eat the super sweetness of the crust. This is so cool, and I just found them at the grocery store. I found a bunch of really new things on my last trip. I'm guessing that things are back in stock (either that or my timing was better because I was able to actually find the coveted item of EGGS!). So I picked up a few new things to try this time around. Reviews to follow. These are an 8/10. Nice balance of tangy & sweet and no crust is a plus. PS: I'm having a hard time posting an image. I'm hoping these don't end up posting with a dozen copies of the photo! ![]() ![]()

Bet they are good but I actually like the crust.

I buy them when I see them. And they seem to be gone as soon as the store puts them out. I usually try to buy a lemon meringue pie when they are on sale for 4 or 5 bucks.

I'm wondering if I should try to make one by hand. I've tried the ones in the supermarket but they taste very "chemical-y" and sugar-y" and just so dreadfully sweet. Don't get me wrong, these jello cups are sweet too. But without the sugar in the crust, these are nicer and cleaner to enjoy. I wish the "meringue" on top was more authentic, however.

You should give making one a try. Make it to your own liking. Having a skill such as Lemon Meringue Pie maker is a great one to have.

I think they are fairly cheap in price too.
