I'm told there is a man who sometimes sells Key Lime Pies in the vicinity of MicroRod Road. Does anybody know where and when he might be doing that?

Saw a sign there that he will be there Thursday starting at 11am. Cost last time I brought one was $20.00.

Key limes are the tiny ones, right. Most come from Texas.

Key limes are smaller than Persian limes.
They also have a thinner skin and more seeds than other limes. No, most do not come from Texas. Today, most of them come from Mexico.

I bought one once. It was well made BUT it wasn't tart and certainly NOT worth $20 >way too sweet. The beauty of the key lime is the tartness and in a pie it should be the focal point. JMHO

He has somewhat of a cult following. Cars are lined up to buy them long before he arrives. He usually has 4-5 signs posted on Racetrack road a few days before the arrival date. He probably arrives w 75-100 pies and always sells out. Agree that $20 for a key lime pie is pretty steep. Law of supply and demand. In his case the demand is definitely there.
