Thanks, Traveller, Shu, Lee and CJ! Traveller, I am sure someone else will post something much better than this modest entry. CJ, here is one theory I found online:
"Posted by Israel Cohen on May 11, 2001. As "simple as pie" is a very ancient expression in English. It is probably at least as old as the nursery rhyme "Simple Simon met a pie-man". He didn't meet a baker, or any other type of "man". I believe this is simply (no pun intended) the translation of an Aramaic pun. The Aramaic word for simple is P'SHooT. The Aramaic word for pie is PaSHTiDaH. In modern Hebrew, the phrase "simple as pie" is: P'SHooT k'mo PaSHTiDaH. Both words begin with peh-shin-tet." It makes perfect sense, doesn't it?!! ~Sharon

I alwasys wondered where that expression came from as there is nothing simple about pie, but this is a great take on simplicity! CJ
