Ritz Mock Apple Pie Review

[@donw804]

Just like Cathy said, I had this pie as a kid My mom didn't bake it, but my best friend's mom did One day in his kitchen, eating Ritz with some Coke When this mock apple pie, his mom said was no joke She said that she'd made it, once or twice times before And just 'cause she liked me, said she'd make it once more Just a day or two later, there sat this fake apple pie She had recently baked, and a slice there to try It tasted like apples, at least more or less And I liked it quite well, I just had to confess Which brings us to Cathy, glad that she liked it too It just goes to show you, what is old can be new A recording malfunction, was a bad stroke of luck When she realized too late, I bet she screamed #%!#@, &%$*#, and @#!%^!! One day I might bake one, like my best friend's mom did To remind me of great times, that filled my life as a kid

I might have said a few colorful words. 😁

I'm old because I remember that Mock Apple Pie recipe on the Ritz box. It was on there for a long time too.

[@medawson01]

My Mother used to make mock apple pie all the time, and I am 75 years old. We loved it.

[@gw209]

My mama used to make mock apple pie , thank you for the memory spark.

[@2centchick]

You’re welcome! 💕

[@garyjohansen8513]

You're fun to watch, I had a memory of my youth today I looked up Ritz/Mock Apple pie and have been watching KZbin videos. There are several like yours where the cook never heard of them, made a pie and were, like you, pleasantly surprised by the outcome. You however were far more convincing by the simple fact you kept enjoying pie the slice. Not just a bite and a declaration of how good it was, but you sold it with the 2nd, 3rd and more bites - I believe you really liked it

[@karenhosko6283]

Thank you so much for doing this! My Dad used to make this all the time when I was a kid. ❤ You brought back some wonderful memories for me! I have one in the oven right now👍🏾

[@2centchick]

You’re welcome! I love that it bought back wonderful memories, thank you for sharing. Made me smile. 🙂 ❤️

[@kevseb66]

Wow! I have heard of this but never knew anyone who actually tried it. Now I'm intrigued.

[@2centchick]

Try it! It’s really good. 😀

[@danish-nl6ew]

Hey Cathy, very interesting. Thanks for the video. Have a wonderful day. Be safe

[@2centchick]

You’re welcome. Hope you are feeling better. 💕

[@debbiereed3509]

Heard of it never tried it . Ty for the critique!

[@2centchick]

You’re welcome!

[@marylove5140]

I made one of these pies and i was absolutely amazed at how much it really did taste just like an apple pie. I will definitely be making it again. Thank you for sharing.

[@chrisshepard6137]

I remember my grandmother used to make this every Thanksgiving as one of pies she’d have. It was more of an “adult” pie, don’t recall ever trying it. Think I might make it as a throw back nod to her. Thanks for posting, stirred up some lovely memories.

[@2centchick]

You’re welcome 🙂

[@fmilton20]

A huge thumbs up! So many people are dainty and take one bite yet claim what they are eating is good. You proved it was good and went all in. You demolished the whole piece on camera. Awesome. Take care and be safe.

[@2centchick]

Thanks!

[@4n461]

My mom made this when I was growing up, back in the 1960's. It's good!

[@briannamedina3966]

I am quite shocked myself! Never heard of this and would be nervous to try so I am glad you did. Lol now maybe I’ll have to consider.. i a very intrigued.

[@2centchick]

I’m glad I’m not the only one who hadn’t heard of it.

[@sherryn39455]

My Aunt use to make this about 63 years ago, it was so good, us kids thought she made it up herself, I am Now 73

[@spitfire3984]

My Mamaw and Aunts use to make this back in the 80’s and 90’s and it always blowed my mind. LOL I couldn’t believe it didn’t have apples in it.

[@kkopp1000]

I remember that! I’ve never had it, but used to wonder about it when I was a kid in the 70s. My favorite part of the video was when you said “this will all be over “ while eating the ice cream! That is me with all this stress! ❤️😂

[@2centchick]

😂

[@mslil65]

Made it for the kids last week and topped it with frozen cool whip since we didn’t have ice cream. Mmm.

[@geraldbaker6690]

Haven't had one in years you brought back memories I'm going to make one soon thank you I'm glad your safe.

[@KarenRobertsonComedy]

Yes, I've made Mock Apple Pie. I just promised my grandson he and I would make one together. I don't remember boiling the crackers. I thought I layered them in the shell, but I know I used the recipe off of the box.

[@markp.richards9598]

When i was in boy scouts at summer camp my Father, (Scout Master) would make this pie. I loved it as a kid... wanting to try and make it. My Father Passed away 40 Years ago.... this would bring back a Memory of him.

[@2centchick]

❤️

[@melindalusk2]

I like many things most folks don't... Top 3 Canned spinach with vinegar... Also mixed greens same way... A favorite... Pickled corn 🌽 Cucumber & onion slices in vinegar water... Yummy

[@chivone21]

I wonder if you add a few more Crackers than what the recipe actually calls for. Say.....a half of a sleeve more? Just to give it a little more bulk....and not look runny? Anyone? I'm gonna try it, just for shootsandgiggles.

[@janetyyyyjitrfyhjjjdalton5264]

My mother use to make this all the time n it does taste like apple pie I loved it I'm 65 n wish she was here to still make it

[@lnghrnfn]

I've heard of it but never made it! I do want to try it though- thanks Cathy!

[@Shelzbells]

It looks delicious, might have to try this one.

[@woof-vicky436]

Hi Cathy, oh my gosh.... why did I never hear of this?! I spend all that time peeling and slicing apples and could have done this! I love Granny Smith apples, but on a lazy craving day this would probably work fine. I also love crumb pie topping and the crackers are a interesting twist which will be fun to try. I won’t be going to the store for probably another few weeks or longer, but when I do game on! My mom makes wonderful homemade pie crust/crumb topping apple pies and I want her and my hubby to try this without knowing the secret ingredient. Not sure if you’ve ever tried them, but Pepperidge Farm makes a apple pie turnover that’s yummy. Sometimes when I get a craving for apple pie I get those. I like them warm out of the oven. This was fun, thx so much for sharing!😊 Can’t answer the question of the day without more details tho!

[@2centchick]

I love the Pepperidge Farm turnovers, sooo good!

[@RealLifeWorthLiving]

My wife made me one shortly after we were married and I loved it. Yes, it tastes like an apple pie, takes on all of the characteristics of an apple pie. She lost the recipe' and it is no longer on the box. That was 46 years ago and I have dreamed about it several times in that time, so, thank you.

[@2centchick]

You’re welcome! 🙂

[@gerib4234]

Yay Cathy's Cookin! I have heard of Mock Apple Pie and ppl have told me that it tastes pretty good. Never tried it, but it's crazy how it looks like apple pie. I did make the Snickerdoodle cake, very delicious! Keep posting Cathy♡ BTW, I too have lost track of the days, it feels like 2or3 days is a week. Hang tough, we'll get through this. :)

[@gopherbone697]

Where did you go? Hope you are doing well. Another youtuber made this and you were the 3rd search result for "mock apple pie". Cool stuff!

[@owensjl65]

This uploads made my day, cheers

[@2centchick]

Glad to hear it! 😀 Stay safe. 💕

[@kaffepojke]

I have made this in the past and heard of it for many years (but I'm old) I think you are such a sweet young Ingénue, Cathy. I think the fake pie works because apples are very sweet (sugar) and the cinnamon and other spices are the main flavors of apple pie. Love the vide.

[@antkim7257]

You sure wolfed that down quick! Must have been pretty good! 😮

[@dyishanmcpherson-eckles808]

I made this in chemistry class a long time ago. My teacher called it a chemical apple pie. Very good!

[@kristalb117]

Will have to try it, thank you.

[@andic1586]

So glad you liked it. It's weird but good 😁

[@2centchick]

Yes! Thanks again! 😀

[@spitfire3984]

This brought back sooo many memories! My Mamaw and Aunts use to make this. They loved “fooling people” and making them think the pie had apple in it. LOL

[@2centchick]

Lol

[@dennisfuller2571]

I actually made this many years ago. Really liked it.

[@debkelly5231]

Never heard of it but I want to try it!

[@jess.from.scratch]

I need to try this out, thanks for the recipe! The bathroom was the first place that came to my mind as well! After thinking for a moment I thought about an air plane. That way I would have food/drinks, bathroom, entertainment and a place to sleep. Although I wouldn't do it right now. 😄 I took a trip to India about 9 years ago and the flight was close to 24/HR long

[@sunnyhawk6748]

My mother never made it but I remember the recipe on the Ritz Cracker Box.

[@mommyandlucas1897]

I have never heard of this recipe before! Crazy!

[@user-vs7um7tp4n]

Yea, it's been around forever. Used to be a teacher who brought it to every potluck we had. I'd be in London if I had a choice.

[@funluvinchick]

I’ve never tried it, but I’ve been aware of the existence of mock apple pie, specifically Ritz, for as long as I can remember. Definitely since I was a young child.

[@wandarios1711]

How crazy! I might have to try that!

[@ceevlogz]

Thanks for sharing

[@HoosierDaddyOfficial]

Looks good, but I’m surprised there’s no allspice in it.

[@elisew1783]

This recipe was created during the Great Depression because apples and fresh were a rare luxury at the time

[@wbheald]

I made one of these in the fifties from that same box recipe. It blew us away.

[@2centchick]

It’s so crazy!!

[@FiremanFrach]

I remember it being on the box growing up. I thought it was weird, but never tried it.

[@laurie4392]

I remember seeing that recipe on the back of the Ritz box when I was young. I always wondered about it. 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@karenaquadro1817]

Reminds me of my friends fake apple pie made with zucchini slices and it also tastes exactly like an apple pie

[@MyMusicII]

My mom made this all the time for us as kids. In fact, I prefer it to real apple pie. The crackers have less in a sleeve now, so you have to open a second one, (to get stale) but I still love this pie! Not sure where you got the recipe, but that's not how it's originally made.

[@2centchick]

There are several recipes on Pinterest.

[@kymdisney11]

I totally remember seeing the recipe on the back of the Ritz boxes, but I don't remember my mom ever making it. Yours sure looked like an apple pie! I've got to try this! QotD - If I could be stuck at one place for 24 hours, it would be Disneyland! Or if I had to narrow that down to a smaller location, a room at the Disneyland Hotel! 😁

[@2centchick]

Good choice! 😀

[@Anita3kidsS.]

I remember this recipe...it was on the box FOREVER! My Mom wouldn't ever let me make it growing up. I don't know why , I baked & cooked everything else lol

[@breaann9814]

I have not seen this in years. It is really good. If you like to try mock pies, give the old fashion oatmeal pie a try. It tastes just like pecan pie without the pecans.

[@nancysmall2099]

My mom made that when I was a child. We loved it. Don’t you just love your Soda Sok?

[@2centchick]

Yes I do, I use it every day.

Great review, my grandmother made that

Thanks for this. I would never have thought it would pass the Cathy Test. Would have been fun to see you have the family guess what it was made of. Lol

Lol that would have been fun but they were in and out of the kitchen.

[@raymondbickham7861]

When i was a boy we had the same thing but we used 3/4cup of apple juice and the rest water and outs alwsys tasted like apples, it was the end of the depression and we couldnt get any apples where im from, northern minnesoya!@@

I never heard of this recipe either, but it really looked like an apple pie!

I’m glad I’m not the only one. 😀

[@carla109]

Being of Don's era, I have heard of this but never tried it. I guess it's about time I did. 😊 I use crushed Ritz crackers and crushed walnuts with eggs to make mock meatballs. It's amazing how good they are. Update- my cousin and his wife are still in ICU but are slowly improving. 💕

[@2centchick]

I’m going to have to google that. That’s great!! I’m so glad to hear they are improving. 💕

[@sondramiller9104]

I had heard of this but it sounded to weird. I have to make that for my husband and not tell him it Ritz crackers. Apple pie is his favorite thing to eat. 😂😂 I can see it now. I totally trust you. Can’t wait to get Ritz crackers and sugar. 😂😂. Love ya, stay safe.

[@2centchick]

Let me know what he says! 😂

[@fastfoodreviewandelvistoo]

Never heard of it but looks good! If I had to be stuck anywhere for 24 hours it would be Elvis Presley’s piano room. TCB ⚡️💙

[@staceykersting705]

usually, apples are sweet enough that u don't need to add sugar. Cinnamon and cardamom is great, tho. Mom used to stack the apple slices about8-9'' high. The pie wd come out amazingly tall. about 5'', at least. So good with a lil ice cream!

[@2centchick]

YUM!!

[@carlalynch5591]

Looks like it was yummy then. I was hesitant when I saw it. Thank you 🙏🏻

Location? 24hrs. Hmmm. I don't want to be at home. I know. A really good bus. One with air shocks, temperature controlled, bathroom, wifi, reclining seats, a bus driver that would bring food, nice 24 hr scenic drive. Cathy you're welcome too. Wow, wouldn't even have to be alone. Road trip! 🤗

Thanks! 😀

[@pennymiller6813]

These pies are good and it does taste very much like apple pie.

[@ravenpoe7093]

Thats been around forever. I remember seeing the recipe when i was a kid on the back of the Ritz box it sounded odd to me....and still does. I didn’t know what mock really meant. Never had it or seen it in person but I saw it mentioned in a tv show or two and I think my only thought ways “people actually made that thing???? 😮” I mostly grew up in the 80s and I don’t really buy Ritz so haven’t paid attention if recipe still was on box

[@dennisfuller2571]

It was there through much of the 1960s, and last appeared in 1993.

Emmy made in Japan did a version of this recipe.

[@butterflyforeve]

Emmy said that she doubts this was really a depression thing because Ritz would have been way to expensive to make these

[@butterflyforeve]

Oh no this is not how she made it the Ritz crackers looked like sliced apples

[@butterflyforeve]

Not sure how Ritz are cheaper cuz I can get a bag of apples for about 2.50 and Ritz cost 2.50 to 2.98 in Texas

[@seanbollinger3888]

This is nifty and I would like to be stuck @ Disney world or the beach

[@heatherwhats-er-face8224]

I've never heard of it either. I hate soggy things and it just seems like it will be like eating soggy crackers. And I've been stuck in my house for 24 DAYS so its not out of the realm of possibility but if in the house it could only b 1 room I would have to pick the bathroom too. Got a good book in there and water and a means to release that water 😂

[@2centchick]

Exactly! 😂

[@quiltea56]

And I could put pillows in the bathtub and real a book there, play a game or watch videos Stay healthy God bless

I can’t imagine how terrible this is for you. I question is there any nutritional value outside of calories?

[@ssnieg9723]

My mother in law used to make this for my father in law, the thought of soggy crackers makes me gag🤢 I never had the guts to try it.

[@ssnieg9723]

Also there are some other depression recipes for pie that are strange to me, one is vinegar pie and another is water pie. I’d love if you tried those

[@2centchick]

I will give it a try! Thanks
