well.... considering his college education was in film production, and he started Good Eats as a film project because he didn't like the production of other cooking shows at the time, i would expect he worked his tail off to rise to the level of cuisine that his film production skills are. i think more that line outside it's humor is more about how even following the recipe dead on, food is an artform making the materials all organic...and organic things aren't perfect, and infinitely reproducible. you will screw it up. more than once. it's ok. doesn't matter if you're so hopeless in the kitchen that you can't fry an egg, or if you're a celebrity chef with countless hours put into perfecting your craft, you will screw it up. even a simple thing.

Variations include a Flan Pie Version. Fruita De Crema Pie- Fruit Salad Pie usually served cold with a bit of Gelatin. Fast Food Pie- Spotted usually in Jollibee with their Peach Mango Pie, Choco Mallow Pie, and Tuna Pie. PS: These are the only Pies I know in my country but I believe there are more.
