Then they go ‘round the bend and put gravy inside...
I actually still love our “Britishter” friends who visit us every year. I just don’t eat their pasties.
I made mine for them and now they prefer the UP version.
A few years ago my wife and I ate at a small English-style restaurant run by a chef from London close to where we live. I ordered a pasty, and was surprised to see it come with gravy. It tasted delicious.
One of my co-workers is from the U.P., and her family had pasties every Sunday like other people have roast beef. She asked me one time what I ate it with. She said you have to eat it with catsup. I said that's what I eat it with. Yummy.
