Joe's Stone Crab in Miami was mentioned in Ian Fleming's book "Goldfinger".

F.Y.I. ...1/8 of a slice of Edwards Key Lime Pie contains 80% of one's Daily Value of Saturated Fat. Quoted from box of Edwards key Lime Pie.

American Heart Association: "Eating foods that contain saturated fats raises the level of cholesterol in your blood. High levels of LDL cholesterol in your blood increase your risk of heart disease and stroke."

You have now taken all possible joy out of a slice of key lime pie. Food police.

We are in the Keys now and a friend who lives here gave us some 'key' limes. They are very small and tart too....

Mommy, is that you? Where did you leave your recipe for Apple Bacon Dumplings with caramel sauce? We can't find it!

It actually says one slice of pie, and there are eight slices to a pie. If you can't make your own Key Lime pie, Edwards is nearly as good.

A Key Lime pie is the easiest thing in the world to make, and according to Walmart's website they sell fresh Key Limes at the local Walmart. I've tried the bottled Key Lime juice sold at Publix and it isn't very good.

Key Limes are green when they are immature, and turn yellow when ripe. A greenish-yellow lime will work, but yellow is better and will have more juice. Key Limes are quite small, so you want juicy ones. You'll need five or six.

Hey, what more could he want! It's vegetarian, there's fruit, protein from the eggs, fiber from the crackers, and, um, er... well, we won't mention the ɹɐƃns.
