Have you ever been on a roadtrip and just wanted something interesting and sweet besides the offerings at gas station marts?
The Berry Patch at 49289 Hwy. 30 Westport, OR has you covered. A neon red sign can easily be read from the road with time to pull into the parking lot (if you’re going the speed limit and heading west). “24 hour Berry Patch Pie Machine.”
This is a must for me, how can someone pass this opportunity by? There are instructions for use of this machine written and taped to the machine. There are also notes that read, “You’re on camera!” and “Don’t be mad at the pie machine!” So here are some helpful hints to follow as well; use the grey buttons to scroll through for your favorite pie before tapping your payment card, make sure you can access the sliding door to the corresponding pie of your choice, tap your card, now stare at the machine while pushing some weird clear-green-ish button wondering why the door doesn’t automatically open when you push it (yep I did that), and then slide the door open, get the spoon while the door is open, push complete where you tapped your card, and enjoy your pie!
I very much enjoyed my cold Chocolate Peanut Butter Pie whilst riding as a passenger down the road. It was a delicious thick peanut butter, cheesecake-like, layer over a graham cracker crust with a thin layer of chocolate ganache on top. There were several other individual sized pies available. I just can’t pass up the best flavor combination in the world (in my opinion) when I see it.
Go out and find all the fun snacks in the most interesting places!
