Mark 14 March on your calendars; it’s Pi Day. Not to be confused with National Pie Day, which falls on 13 January, this day is very aptly dated based on the first three numbers of pi (3.14).
The day may not be officially related to food but we think it’s the perfect excuse to eat pie.
Whether you’re wanting savoury pastry packed with piping hot meat and veg or a perfectly sweet-and-tart fruit pie, we have options right across Australia.
Have them for lunch or as an afternoon tea. With the next two digits being 15, it’s the perfect excuse to have a 3pm snack of party pies or fruit pies.

Fun fact: Pi day is also Albert Einstein's birthday!
The first three numbers of pi, the mathematical constant that’s used to measure the circumference of a circle, are 3.14.
With 14 March being the 14th day of the third month, written out in the American-style of date formats where the month appears first, it’s 3.14.
Of course, you’d start with anything Pi or pie related. You can bake them, eat them and even toss them.
We think it’s just a fun excuse to have a snack or lunch with your team around a theme. Especially if what you do is in any way related to something you’d need to do calculations for using pi.
