You're not missing much, I suspect.

A pie floater is, I gather, a bowl of green pea soup with a meat pie 
(probably the commercial, pub-type, hockey-puck-looking thing with a 
filling of ground pork, breadcrumbs, and spices -- we hope) sitting 
in the middle of it all. Presumably floating... and possibly 
illustrating the principle that the whole is greater (or worse, as 
the case may be) than the sum of its parts.

Allegedly an Oz thing...
