I almost converted.

Their butterscotch pie is worth the 2.5 hour drive for me. The rest of their food is great too but man, that butterscotch though.
Ordinarily, I'd make a point to stop in if I was in the area but I've been known to make the drive just for the butterscotch pie.

I might even have to reconsider how much I love pecan - if I can get Yoder's butterscotch I'd probably pick it half the time over pecan.
