I don't understand the hating on the rhubarb/strawberry combination. In my mind it is ideal. The strawberry tones down the rhubarb a bit without requiring huge amounts of sugar. It's a match made in heaven. It's true that you have to have the right proportions to get the right tart/sweet flavor. But Dad managed it.

Years ago, one of the guys gave my Dad a rhubarb plant. Dad planted it in the back yard, and as you may know rhubarb only escapes being a weed by being edible. So we had plenty rhubarb from then on. Dad experimented with a number of rhubarb pie recipes, but we all liked the strawberry rhubarb the best.
