So in Britain, Apple pie is a cultural symbol, on par with the saying "As American as baseball and apple pie?"

Fascinating.

And just to conform: Other Brits, have you never heard the saying "As American as Apple Pie?" Is it not known at all in there?

AYRT just to be clear, it's not that the saying isn't known here it just doesn't really hold any weight. Why would it when apple pie holds its own cultural value for us?

And that's why I'm so perplexed by this whole thing. Americans thinking that their cultural reverence for Apple pie should somehow hold more relevance for other nations than our own cultural place for it.

Yes. Just in a different, quieter, less shouty way.
