I expected you to take a far more strident view re the pasty 😁😁

I fully agree re the teacakes.

The pies over here are made with the flaky pastry. It's just wrong. They're alright though.

At the end of the day you can't beat a Wigan kebab.

In the fear of starting a teacake style debate…

Isn’t a pasty just a type of pie?

Like to think I'm the resident pasty expert on here 🤦‍♂️ as I live in the land of the pasty (see my avatar).

It's a pastry wrapped item, but so is a beef Wellington. 🙄

It should never be referred to as a type of pie! 😂

How dare you take my wife’s side on this 😁😁

A pasty is just a trial pie that went wrong.

Totally agree flaky pastry on a pie is just plain wrong.

Having lived in the midlands, south-west and Wales there is nowhere like the north for decent pies.

Whenever I see a pie on a menu my first question is always to ask what pastry it is made with.
