Order 20 Kinds Of Pie At This Roadside Stop In Ohio

There's a scene in "Harold and the Purple Crayon" where the Crayola-wielding protagonist conjures up a picnic of pies. "There was nothing but pie. But there were all nine kinds of pie that Harold liked best." The tot then feasts on pie and shares his bounty with a hungry moose and "deserving porcupine." Harold would certainly love today's feature destination, a roadside stop in Ohio that specializes in classic American meals... and pie. So much pie. The menu at Schmucker's Restaurant has 20 of these delicious desserts, in fact, making this diner the sweetest roadside stop in Ohio.
