Does anyone think that 'cool whip' type product could be used instead of evaporated milk?

My family does not care for the taste of it.

I used a regular crust, rather than graham cracker, and it was fine. I also reduced the amount of evaporated milk because I think it often tastes strange in fruity pies.
