How do you edge a pie? With fork or finger and thumb or ?
When I was auditing folk-lore classes years ago, some students were upset because they thought they didn't have any folk-lore; they were just boring vanilla.
The instructor said that how they were taught to edge and decorate pies was part of their family's and region's folk-lore. I haven't looked at pies the same way since.

Are pickled pigs feet a very common snack in US today?
My mom (b 1913 in MO) ate them now and then when I was a kid. I think she said she started eating them when she was pregnant.
