Every year my whole family insists that we order those famous key lime pies that Kutchie Pelaez is famous for. We have been ordering them since the 1980's. We used to live near Asheville back in the 80's, that's when we began eating at the Kutcharitaville Key West Cafe. We loved their famous cheese burgers and that's when we first started enjoying those awesome pies. The kids have grown-up now and have families of there own. All of us continue to order those Kutchie Pies every holiday. Merry Christmas Everyone,...Candy

These are "traditional"? I guess traditions at my house and in my family are much different, I only got 4/7 of these correct lol.

I too must question the picture identified as marzipan. The upper image appears to be pistachio-dredged truffles. Could an error have occurred in the construction of the quiz?
