Despite Marie Callender's stellar reputation as our favorite frozen pie brand, the frozen side dish that customers unanimously revile is the sweet corn casserole. The photo on the box depicts a luxurious hybrid between cornbread and corn pudding, but disappointed and disgusted reviews routinely declare "false advertising!" Customers on Reddit even felt that the corn casserole was an affront to all the senses. As one wrote, "The smell is gross. The taste is worse and the texture isn't good either."

It all starts with a cookie crust, which automatically makes this pie more interesting than the others in the lineup.

Soybean oil's lack of fat compromises the dough's ability to become flaky, resulting in a fragile pie crust that doesn't separate into layers.
