00:00So when it comes to holiday dessert duty, are you team store-bought or are you team homemade?
00:04The internet went crazy for Patti LaBelle's sweet potato pie. I'm going to see how it compares to
00:07our homemade sweet potato pie. It was submitted in 1966 by Mrs. O.C. Stringer from Laurel,
00:12Mississippi. I'm going to taste patties first. Okay, not bad, Patti. The crust is actually pretty
00:17good. I expected it to be kind of bland, but it has more of like a shortbread-y kind of
00:21texture.
00:21The pie itself, it's nice and sweet. I don't so much taste spice, but that's a nice pie. So I'm
00:26going to taste her and see how she compares. Hands down, homemade is better. So this matches
00:30the sweetness of patties, but the depth of spices is really so much better. This one has nutmeg,
00:35cinnamon, and cloves. That tastes like fall. That tastes like Thanksgiving. If you're in a rush,
00:39pick up some patty, but if you've got the time, make it from scratch.
