Yeah they are delicious, don’t use gross ass corn syrup though. I used to buy them from a lady and she used honey instead and it was fucking delicious. Also don’t fine chop your pecans, only fags fine chop their pecans, leave those bitches whole or very roughly chopped. Also make sure you have enough pecans so that they make up a majority of the pie, the one op posted is a bad example, it should look like this.

No. They're fucking disgusting. It somehow tastes sweeter than pure sugar. You have to have a trashed, sugar-addled palate to eat more than two bites before feeling ill.
