To those who refuse to eat pecan pie nor pumpkin pie nor the like delicacies, but contrive absurd flavors by their blasphemous tastes, upon the feast of thanksgiving. And in their machinations consume key lime pie or any similar abominations for such an event, the holy Church proscribes, condemns, and anathematizes.
Good one Ryan 👍☝️✝️ I guess up here in Washington State it's Blackberry pie. Well, there are a lot of Blackberries up here. But I am a pumpkin pie fan. But, I grew up in the military with southern parents, so go figure. Gooseberry pie is really good too. Or, custard pie, one of my favorites. The very best part though is being THANKFUL ☝️ And hopefully love between everyone there, and peace. Sadly, that's become more rare as time goes on. Well, that's Scriptural , so we keep looking up. Luke 21. HAPPY THANKSGIVING TO YOU RYAN AND YOUR FAMILY. MARANATHA 🔜 ☝️💥🌄✝️ Walter, Deeana and Randie ❤️❤️❤️
PA here. Shoofly pie has a gooey molasses filling. Not pure molasses there’s like flour and egg (I think) to get it firm. It is actually PA Dutch but most people who grew up in PA are familiar. It’s delicious! Also, so glad you started posting again. I’m not super religious I just like the history. Have a good Thanksgiving Ryan!
Shoefly pie is now made in mennonite/amish settings, and is basically a caramel, chocolate, cream pie. It is the best of all of them. And it will kill you stone dead. And you will die happy.

Thank you for uploading again Dr Reeves! As I watch your videos I’m inspired by your commitment to historical accuracy and your commitment to detailing it from a Christian perspective. May God bless your family’s Thanksgiving. Keep the uploads coming!
Ryan, I'm thankful in this season that you are bringing in more videos for all of us to enjoy. I'm glad to have the honor of being a Patron. And as with so many others here, I am blessed by your insight and wisdom.
Please continue to produce videos for I have watched I believe everyone of your videos multiple times. More over, I have shared your videos with hundreds of people and use them in my own classes. I learned so much from you and I would so much like you to continue to do this.
I’m so happy I was recommended your Galileo video, as since I’ve been loving all of your lectures/videos I’ve watched. Hope you have a great Thanksgiving!
Canadian here, we do a traditional Turkey dinner for thanksgiving. Stuffing, mash potatoes, the whole spread. sometimes there's a ham as well. Pumpkin pie is probably number one, then apple. The only real difference is we do ours in October. The 2nd Monday in October. I think that has something to do with our harvest being a bit earlier as we're more northern so it happens sooner.
Wow I just noticed the new videos in the channel. 🎉🎉🎉 Thank you Ryan Your channel is so edifying to me. I already watched all the videos like 3 times each 😅 now is time to get back in track. My favorite channel in general specially in church history. May God Continue to Bless your life, your family and your ministry.
These histories of the holidays are great but they're too short! I'd love to see extended editions of all of them that are twice or even three times the length.
Frito Pie is a bag of fritos mixed with chili (from a can, unless you are dedicated) with Tex Mex cheese as topping. Served like lasagna with sour cream as a topping. I wish I was making this up.
Great info, thank you Dr. Reeves - wonderful how Thanksgiving picked up an undertone of healing during/after the Civil War. With forgiveness comes great relief, peace.
Man, way to bring up Sarah Hale! I've heard of her before but didn't realize how influential she was. I'll definitely research her some more after this.
can’t tell you the last time I was so excited to see new videos posted by a “content creator”. Thank you again for returning to us! - I very grateful student
Shoofly pie, from the bottom up is: pie crust, a molasses based layer of goo, a cake layer (sweetened with molasses) and a crumb topping. It's delicious, but definitely a unique pie. We usually had it for breakfast at my grandmother's house, I don't remember having it on Thanksgiving.
I've never heard of Sarah Hale before this video, thank you for the informative introduction. Wonderful person and traditions to keep alive passing it on to my kids, supplementing their "knowledge" of color coded turkey cutouts they learn of this holiday at school..
Hey Ryan, I asked my grandma who is from Pennsylvania about what a Shoofly pie is. She said it is made from molasses so flies tend to swarm it, hence the need to shoo them away from your pie!
I live in Salina, Mayes County, Ok. I'm originally from Circleville, OH. I'd never heard of a Frito Chili Pie until I moved here. It's a bowl of chili with corn chips in it. We also add cheese, onions, and sour cream. I didn't know it was a Kansas thing. It's definitely an Oklahoma thing. They sell it at all the dairyettes. Love your videos by the way. Been watching them for years.
God Bless You, Dr. Reeves and Happy Thanksgiving to everyone. Shoofly Pie is also sold in Delaware. It is a very easy and inexpensive pie that requires molasses, brown sugar, baking soda, eggs, flour, water, and lard. If you want a great pie crust you will need salt and butter. I would also add that the Plymouth Colony dumped the Mayflower Compact in order to survive but I think you have already covered that in a previous video. :)
I like your emphasis on Sarah Josepha Hale. My personal favorite Thanksgiving figure is Squanto, but she certainly was a very, very important person in the history of Thanksgiving.
I'm not sure how well the Google trends of pie searches correlate to actual pie consumption. Pies that people in a given region/household traditionally/regularly eat on Thanksgiving are usually family recipes that obviously don't need to be Googled.
In recent years, I've grown in appreciation of the original intent behind the practice of thanksgiving feasts. But with our country extremely divided and our society having such little appreciation and vision for the vital female gifts women bring to the table, the history of Sara Josepha Hale's contribution to the holiday makes me love Thanksgiving even more! In a day of such selfish individualism, atomization of the family, devaluing of family and community, and contempt for the gift that children are, our land is in desperate need of these same gifts!
Dr. Ryan, I honestly do not intend to be crude, but I'm not sure Nevada's "Cream Pie" has anything to do with baking. Especially when you factor in for how the results were obtained and what Nevada's largest city is.

Only the Federal Government was intended to be separated from church. The state governments were to be free to favor the religion of the local people, without interference from the Federal Government.
@@hamnchee They didn't all avoid it. They went away from it over time. Here is an excerpt of the quick summary I was just given by Bing AI: "Most instances of state-supported religion were removed before 1850, and the remaining requirements became null and void after the passing of the 14th Amendment on July 28, 1868" The intention was for the states to have religious freedom, not for them to be forced into Secular Humanism. We may have some wonderful Christian states today, if that religious freedom had remained respected. Then again, there's not much indication that politics was going that way, so maybe losing that freedom was for the best.
@@hamnchee I'm talking about people groups. I may have religious freedom to be a Christian in a Secular Humanist society, but do a Christian people have the freedom to establish a governance which is run specifically according to their Christian belief? Civilly, they allow preborn children to be murdered where I live. Does the preborn child have religious freedom? I don't think being subjected to Secular Humanism is as free as you would like to think it is.
@@NicholasproclaimerofMessiah You can be an abortion abolitionist without a religious government, or even religion. Abortion isn't a tenent of secular humanism. Vote and practice your values! However, if you are serious about wanting a theocratic revolution because you don't have the votes, you'll have to fight a war. It's only fair, right?
I saw that pie map a few days ago. I grew up in Jersey. Lived in Florida for years. Now I live in Butler Pennsylvania. We don't eat shoe pie here. You can't even find it. Pumpkin is the pie 🥧 in Western Pennsylvania. Some people like apple 🍎. Apples are in season. In many years in Tampa Bay... nobody ate Key Lime on Thanksgiving. I must admit that Sweet Potato pie 🥧 is popular especially with Black Americans in Florida. It's much like pumpkin pie and I took a liking to it. Now if could only go back in time and have my mother's Rhubarb pie in New Jersey. It's always the crust that makes a pie. Have a blessed Thanksgiving and especially my fellow veterans.
I'm ever thankful for Dr. Reeves but I was horrified that he pronounced "pee-con" as "pee-kan" 😂😂 Haha, thank you very much for all you do Dr. Reeves. Happy Thanksgiving!
@RyanReevesM (holy Christokos God bless Luther Ryan Reeves just responded to my comment🤯) Haha! Well I'm from California, so we have our own problems too😂 God bless you and your family Dr. Reeves🦃🙏🏽 (btw, just joking about the christokos).
Imagine if a computer-animated or live-action movie or series were ever made by Pixar or a live-action film studio all about the First Thanksgiving and what really happened during the holiday and during the Pilgrims’s colonization of Massachusetts sailing over on the MayFlower in the early 1620s which they named Plymouth after their hometown, and how they met and crossed paths with the Wampanoag Native Americans who could later have a feast with them to celebrate the harvest that would later be called a National Holiday, Thanksgiving by U.S. President Abraham Lincoln in the 1880s.
How would the Wampanoags not know the plains Indians existed? The Iroquois certainly knew of the plains Indians and traded with them some. There was plenty of trade and diplomacy and awareness of the other tribes throughout North America. It's a rather fantastical pop-culture perspective to think the natives were so primitive and unestablished that they didn't know about the other tribes which lived a significant distance away, especially such a widespread and consequential people as the plains Indians who had earned a reputation for being very violent and especially treacherous. The Wampanoags also were almost certainly aware that the Aztecs existed too, and probably even the Incas, though the further the people the vaguer the awareness.
Shoofly pie got its name (so I was told by my Arkansas relatives) because it was meant to sit at the end of the picnic table on hot summer afternoons and its sweetness would draw all the flies away from the rest of the food. This might be bullshit, but I think it's a fun story.
Tamale pie is an entree or side dish. Where tamales are traditionally steamed and made in bulk. Tamale pie is baked and you make one or a couple. Its easier to make than making batches of tamales in my opinion
This is an interesting video, one that points out exactly what to me Thanksgiving has always been. That map, though, just confuses me. Washington and blackberries make sense. Oregon, well tamale pie makes sense in that there are a lot of people there originally from Mexico, but tamale pie is NOT a desert pie. And as for Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana and Key Lime pie? Just no! You're going to find pumpkin, apple, and some cream pies, likely even a few pecan pies and key lime pies but there's no way key lime is the most popular pie of that region.
As far as I know, in earlier times, Christ didn't need to be specified when speaking of God and religion, because there was no other possibility on the table. The idea of acknowledging any unchristian religion didn't cross anyone's minds back then. Perhaps that started to change around the turn of the century, prompting Cleveland and McKinley to specify what had once gone without saying.
@@CampLJNC Jews and Deists don't believe in the Creator, so they give thanks to their own imaginations. As a matter of how the public statements were taken by the People at the time, your take is being applied anachronistically. As a matter of what the Freemasons had in mind, you are likely correct. So, when I said "didn't cross anyone's minds", I was speaking rather colloquially about the standard perspective which was publicly acceptable and politically viable. The Freemasons likely used vague wording to setup for the Perennialism (like Ecumenism, but beyond professed Christians to include all religions) which has since taken over the nation. Here is some standard history with no tinfoil hat, quote: "The first recorded instance of a Masonic lodge in France was in 1725. By 1772, the Grand Orient Lodge was established in France with 104 lodges. This number grew dramatically in the years leading up to the French Revolution, with the number of lodges reaching 2,000 by the time of the Revolution. Prior to the revolutionary period, there were an estimated 1,250 lodges in France with around 40,000 members." End quote. The Freemasons also tried to get George Washington to assist with the French Revolt, even though the American War Of Independence was declared for legitimate cause by the legitimate authorities here in America, while the French Revolt was blatant extreme terrorism. It's astounding to that France still uses the flag of the revolt as their flag; it's exceedingly disgraceful. So, it was likely doublespeak. The People were meant to read the statements as statements which can only apply to Christianity, whereas the Freemasons were deliberately setting up for an unchristian future for America, which future we now live in.
The sources I am finding, say that Lincoln's proclamation was to give thanks for defeating the South at Gettysburg. The war had not even ended yet. Seems that celebrating the impending defeat of the Southerners is absolutely contrary to forgetting our differences. Battle Hymn Of The Republic presents the Gospel as being fulfilled in the victory of the North and the end of slavery; that's a false gospel, and is exactly parallel with Wokeness in the present day. "We are stamping out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored"; the lyric proclaims the North to be agents of God's wrath punishing the South. The North had no notion of forgetting differences. They deliberately strove to cripple the South in the aftermath of the war. Perhaps forgetting differences sounded nice in Sarah's letter, but it's just spin to look purer by pretending to well-wish the enemy. Sarah may have believed it, just as the Woke delude themselves today. If we don't learn from history, then we cannot prevent ourselves from repeating it.
The uselessness of buckles on hats didn't stop the Victorians from wearing them and inspiring Americans to anachronistically depict the pilgrims in them. Supposedly, useless expenses in clothing were used to flaunt wealth. I mean, I don't know what use a necktie would serve either.
The second I heard author of “Mary Had A Little Lamb” I shouted, “Oh she’s the woman from either New Hampshire or Vermont!” (Sorry New Hampshire/Vermont for not distinguishing well enough between you…)
I’ve lived in Oregon my whole life (40 years) and have never heard about a tamale pie let alone ate one for thanksgiving. Pumpkin for the win. Maybe Southern Oregon is more akin to California. 🤷🏼♂️
Only a Philistine would eat key lime pie on Thanksgiving.
*Philistines did nothing wrong!*

Professor Reeves, is there an address via which one could contact you privately to ask a question, email, etc.?
I am a Pennsylvania resident, and a shoo fly pie is very common here. Is it made with molasses and associated with PA Dutch/German cuisine.
I have enjoyed this video ❤

Is it literally made of frito chips and chili?

Thanksgiving came from Harvest Home which was celebrated in England.
This is an interesting video, one that points out exactly what to me Thanksgiving has always been. That map, though, just confuses me. Washington and blackberries make sense. Oregon, well tamale pie makes sense in that there are a lot of people there originally from Mexico, but tamale pie is NOT a desert pie. And as for Utah, Idaho, Wyoming, and Montana and Key Lime pie? Just no! You're going to find pumpkin, apple, and some cream pies, likely even a few pecan pies and key lime pies but there's no way key lime is the most popular pie of that region.
Frito chili pie isn’t actually pie.
It’s basically putting Fritos into chili.
I’m here for it….go on.
I wonder if he will do one for Christmas? I hope so
Shoe fly pie- a Pennsylvanian Dutch pie- think of pecan pie except with a molasses concoction covered with floury crumbs in a pie crust😉😮
I find it hilarious that Illinois, the largest grower of pumpkins, prefers cherry pie

@@CampLJNC Jews and Deists don't believe in the Creator, so they give thanks to their own imaginations.
As a matter of how the public statements were taken by the People at the time, your take is being applied anachronistically. As a matter of what the Freemasons had in mind, you are likely correct. So, when I said "didn't cross anyone's minds", I was speaking rather colloquially about the standard perspective which was publicly acceptable and politically viable. The Freemasons likely used vague wording to setup for the Perennialism (like Ecumenism, but beyond professed Christians to include all religions) which has since taken over the nation.
Here is some standard history with no tinfoil hat, quote:
"The first recorded instance of a Masonic lodge in France was in 1725. By 1772, the Grand Orient Lodge was established in France with 104 lodges. This number grew dramatically in the years leading up to the French Revolution, with the number of lodges reaching 2,000 by the time of the Revolution. Prior to the revolutionary period, there were an estimated 1,250 lodges in France with around 40,000 members."
End quote.
The Freemasons also tried to get George Washington to assist with the French Revolt, even though the American War Of Independence was declared for legitimate cause by the legitimate authorities here in America, while the French Revolt was blatant extreme terrorism. It's astounding to that France still uses the flag of the revolt as their flag; it's exceedingly disgraceful.
So, it was likely doublespeak. The People were meant to read the statements as statements which can only apply to Christianity, whereas the Freemasons were deliberately setting up for an unchristian future for America, which future we now live in.
Hail Hale, give thanks to the All Mighty!
this was good
i’ve lived in NC for 30 years and i’ve never heard of buttermilk pie…
Fantastic
If you want to expand your first Thanksgiving feast to North America consider Frobisher Bay in 1584.
The sources I am finding, say that Lincoln's proclamation was to give thanks for defeating the South at Gettysburg. The war had not even ended yet. Seems that celebrating the impending defeat of the Southerners is absolutely contrary to forgetting our differences.
Battle Hymn Of The Republic presents the Gospel as being fulfilled in the victory of the North and the end of slavery; that's a false gospel, and is exactly parallel with Wokeness in the present day. "We are stamping out the vintage where the grapes of wrath are stored"; the lyric proclaims the North to be agents of God's wrath punishing the South.
The North had no notion of forgetting differences. They deliberately strove to cripple the South in the aftermath of the war. Perhaps forgetting differences sounded nice in Sarah's letter, but it's just spin to look purer by pretending to well-wish the enemy. Sarah may have believed it, just as the Woke delude themselves today.
If we don't learn from history, then we cannot prevent ourselves from repeating it.
The uselessness of buckles on hats didn't stop the Victorians from wearing them and inspiring Americans to anachronistically depict the pilgrims in them. Supposedly, useless expenses in clothing were used to flaunt wealth.
I mean, I don't know what use a necktie would serve either.
I live in Arizona I never heard of a grape pie
The second I heard author of “Mary Had A Little Lamb” I shouted, “Oh she’s the woman from either New Hampshire or Vermont!” (Sorry New Hampshire/Vermont for not distinguishing well enough between you…)
Im from oregon, never even heard of tamale pie lol
Canadian Thanksgiving is eating poutine, drinking Molson Ice and listening to Drake.
I’ve lived in Oregon my whole life (40 years) and have never heard about a tamale pie let alone ate one for thanksgiving. Pumpkin for the win. Maybe Southern Oregon is more akin to California. 🤷🏼♂️
Please do the history of marriage!
Shoofly pie has molasses,right?
Shoofly pie is made with molasses, it’s a Pennsylvania Dutch/Mennonite creation
You’re make us Texans claim thanksgiving now 😅
