- Key lime pie is a dessert made from Key lime juice, sweetened condensed milk, and graham cracker crust.
- It originated in the Florida Keys in the late 19th century, where Key limes were plentiful, and refrigeration was scarce.
- Condensed milk became a vital ingredient as fresh dairy was not widely available.
- Key lime pie is now Florida’s official state pie and a symbol of the region’s tropical flavors and culinary ingenuity.
