Aside from being a successful musician in the country industry, Dolly Parton is also an entrepreneur as she owns several businesses like her amusement park in Tennessee called Dollywood.
More recently, an online user visited the location and his video went viral after showing how much a whole apple pie costs at the theme park.
A TikTok user named Stonewall Kelsey took to the platform to share a video of the 25-pound apple pie being on display and it costs a shocking $229 for the entire thing while a slice is worth $19.99.

The video immediately went viral and made rounds on the internet as it now has more than two million views and thousands of comments.
Fans immediately poked fun at the situation by sharing their thoughts in the comment section with one user writing, "for that price dolly needs to come to my house and put on a concert. ridiculous."
"For that price I'd want her to jump out and motorboat me," another one wrote.
Some users went on a serious note, saying Dollywood is not worth its price, writing, "Dollywood is not worth the price of admission or anything for that matter. I'd prefer a Dolly concert."
Although the pie was expensive, some commenters defend the country singer, saying it was reasonably priced because the pie weighs 25 pounds and they get to take home the skillet afterward.
As of this writing, Dolly Parton has yet to react to the comments.
