Here we go again. "Pie" or "Cake" are countable nouns as well, but
we`re also free to say
"I want Cherry Pie", or,
"For Gods` sake, how can you not love Cake?"

They`re not, technically, although could be used with indefinite

Same with "town", BTW:
"He`s out of town", or,
"Tony`s back in town, let`s pay him a visit".
