You missed my joke....

I think you meant pastries...NOT pasties.

I believe pasties are "used" in a certain industry.......wink, wink...!!

Thus my post.....

Cornish pasties — say no more!

(Too big, really, to be of much use in burlesque).

I got it - but they really are "pasties" not "pastries".

Any Yooper or Cornishman can tell you the edible one (I know that can cause confusion in itself) is pronounced "pass-tee" while the "wardrobe accessory" is pronounced "pay - stee".
