Summer is the season for pie and [Friendly's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/friendlys-jonas-brothers) is celebrating with its new 'I Cannot Tell a Lie Cherry Pie' ie cream flavor.

I Cannot Tell a Lie Cherry Pie is a [limited-edition ice cream flavor](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/super-fun-times). The name is a nod to the famous story of George Washington who declared "I cannot tell a lie!' after damaging his father's cherry tree with a hatchet. With that story in mind, the frozen dessert offers a tasty take on [cherry pie](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mr-kipling-caramel-tart). Starting with a base of sweet cream ice cream, the flavor is infused with a tart cherry swirl and real pie crust pieces. In other words, it's the perfect way to enjoy a slice of pie without the baking.
