JJ's Bakery Strawberry & Cream Pie

Somehow knowing this was the last of the terrible pies made it a little better. I will never buy these again, but this was less bad because I have no expectation for what a strawberry cream hand pie should be like, so the weird thin goop filling wasn't as upsetting, even though it was certainly fruitless thin goop. Crust was fine. These are better cold than hot, but they are still bad. :(

JJ's Bakery Boston Cream Pie

Curse the day I decided to buy these pies! Luckily there's only one left after this. Whew. OK, so the inside texture is still freakin' weird and goopy (and thin). It did taste a lot like a boston creme donut filling+frosting, though. Didn't really go with the pie crust. Overall, filling and fatty and sugary, and not worth it. Weird stuff.

JJ's Bakery - Lemon Pie

Continuing along with our pie-rade of horrors, this, too, was bad. The outside is basically what I want in a hand pie, but the inside was really bad and weird. Like silly putty, but lemon colored. Yikes.

JJ's Bakery Apple Pie

JJs Bakery is one of the biggest letdowns of my adult life. Dang. I was really hoping apple would magically be good, and I even heated this one up, but it was no good. Tasted less like anything, but still very disappointing. Hardly any (goopy, weird) filling, no apple chunks to speak of, just real bad.

JJ's Bakery - Cherry Pie

Oh no. They say "Real Fruit Filling", but the vibe I got was "real toxic filling" instead. I was so excited for these pies because I've been yearning for a Hostess Fruit Pie for the longest time, but you know the allergy info is sus for those. So this wasn't a great dupe. The crust is pretty good, heavy and glazed (maybe too heavy). But the inside was "eh" at best. Not wet or full of fruit, more like a congealed jam. Luckily I was ravenous when I ate this, but in retrospect, it was not great.
