To celebrate the release of the second season of the Orange is the New Black series, Netflix decided to create a humorous food truck called Crazy Pyes that will promote the show as well as serve free slices of chocolate pie and swirled ice cream to fans of the show.
The Crazy Pyes food truck is inspired by the Orange is the New Black character Suzanne, formerly known as Crazy Eyes, and her constant reference to chocolate pies and vanilla chocolate swirled ice cream. In the first season Suzanne was quoted saying the infamous line, "I threw my pie for you." The Crazy Pyes truck has already passed through Mexico City and plans to hit up several locations in New York City such as Brooklyn and Madison Square Park.
