   Hello Alexander,   
      
    Alexander Koryagin <2:221/6> vs. Ardith Hinton:

   Sometimes it may not work this way. E.g. talking about food, you can hear   
   something along the lines of:   
      
      "...Nutella has become out comfort food, we like it   
       with banana or pretzels."   
      
   Many types of food (besides pie, cake, ice cream, candy etc.) can be referred   
   to as uncountable when served in slices, even if you still think of it as   
   "countable".   
      
   On the other hand, mentioned as a dish, like a menu item you may order in a   
   cafe or restaurant, it should be referred to as countable:   
      
      "...They got a cherry pie there that'll kill ya!"   
      
   So, again, it's complicated.
