Pi Day, the annual celebration of the mathematical constant of pi (π, or 3.14), is celebrated the world over by mathematicians and academics. But for the rest of us, it’s an excuse to eat pie!
These days, Pi Day (March 14) is observed by anyone who expresses a passing interest in pie, be it fruit-based, sweet potato, or of the pizza “pie” variety.
