A passerby cannot miss seeing this mammoth pie tin, noted as the world’s largest Cherry pie. A sign relates some of the facts behind this pie: “The pie was baked intact in a specially constructed 14’ pie tin and 18’ oven on the grounds of Medusa Cement Corporation. The pie “tin was made by Will-Flow. Medusa made the oven for the pie. It took five hours to cook the pie. It was the first world’s largest cherry pie in the U.S.A. Originated by Dave Phillips, May, 1976.” The amounts of the ingredients are also posted on the sign with the note that “Egg wash and sugar distributed on top of pie crust using a helicopter.”
