Worthy question.
While we raise our voices in the other corner, I have to admit here that 
I have so far failed to advance any rhubarb in my own life, although I 
was present when other agents pressed the stalk upon a non-rhubarbical 
supplicant. And she saw that it was good.
I am planning, however, whenever I see the venerable leafy flora at my 
supermarket, to prepare the pie.
And let those who add strawberries be driven to madness by tumors, and 
may their genitals shrink and decay in hideous pain.
