But a pie should have a lid. If anything #7 should be pie rather than calzome.
The lid is optional (pizza pie, pumpkin pie, quiche) I will die on this hill
I feel like there are more kinds of pies without lids than ones with them anyway.
But then that would make a covered pie a calzone! And a hot dog a taco! And soup a salad! And an omelette a salad! And ice cream a sala- wait... I think this system is growing on me...
Could y'all please stop dieing on hills all the time?! I love hiking, but all the corpses are really disturbing.
What a splendid pie. Pizza pizza pie.
And even with a lid, it isn't quite #7.
#7 is for things where there's basically no distinction between the top and bottom. Even pies with a crust on top has a distinct "top" side, whereas the sides and bottoms are all pie crust.
#7 is for calzones, corn dogs, burritos, dumplings, pot stickers, ravioli, etc.
None of those are pies. That’s not even heresy, just wrongness.
A closed top pie form is called a galette.
The open top form is pie.
You got the galette backwards
This means that a calzone is a pie or that a pie is a calzone
Calzone is a pie.
Pies with lids are calzones
So most pies are calzones? Because most pies have lids.
