Did you use real key limes (from Mexico) or regular limes? This was
the subject of a couple threads here recently.

Neither. We used bottled juice and zest for enhancing the lime flavor.

Bottled juice has the advantage of predictable acidity compared to fresh
which varies both in flavor and acidity. Since there is a reaction between
the citrus and dairy ingredients which affects hjow the pie sets up, it
works best for us.

I can see that-- but I'm guessing you sprung for Nellie & Joe's. In
our almost scientific taste test, it came in second behind the key
limes-- and ahead of the fresh persian limes.

Congrats on your success!

Not so much anymore. Are there any commercial limes in the Keys? By
your reckoning are my Waltham Butternut squashes not Walthams because
I grow them in NY?

The Key lime (Citrus aurantifolia) apparently originated in the Middle East
and are grown in amenable climates all over. Check Wikipedia for a very
good entomology

Maybe in Florida they're from the Keys, but the vast majority of key
limes are from Mexico - no doubt about it.
