    Pasties are a British food eaten with your hands. Think of homemade Hot Pocket but a million times better. I miss living in England.

    I knew what the OP meant but my mind went there anyways. Picture boobie pasties made out of toast that has been cut out with a heart shaped cookie cutter....or a star.

    i usually see these when I'm up in the UP..... I haven't come across a veggie one yet, so if anyone knows of them let me know! My man and I are veggie and I would love to try this.

    You can make them yourself and they're not too bad.

    For the inevitable US/British English confusion:

    US definition of a pasty - a small fabric or plastic circle that goes over the nipple - either to conceal it beneath clothing when not wearing a bra, or as an exhibition piece. Not for eating. Or maybe, if you're lucky/adventurous....

    Brit/Aussie/otherwise post-colonial definition: a flaky pastry shell with vegetable and meat filling - like a calzone made from puff pastry.

    Yeah, I knew what it was, but still thought "don't you just call those stickers?" anyway. Now having the two definitions side by side I'm imagining pasty pasties

    Oh thank you so much for posting that! I love pasties and didn't figure there was a "healthier" option. Definitely plan to try these!

    Many people are going to click here for one thing and instead learn a little something about English food.

    The Brit/Aussie version is also quite popular in some parts of the midwest...particularly the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. Haven't had one since I was a kid, but they are delish! :)

    Thanks for posting this link. I can't wait to share it with my hubby so hopefully he will make them (his way, and clean). Haven't had a pasty in awhile....they are common here in northern Wisconsin. There's even a small restaurant in Rhinelander, WI, that has a ton of varieties....breakfast ones (with egg, sausage, cheese, potatoes, etc......sooooo good), Greek ones (with Feta cheese, sun dried tomatoes, ground lamb), a bunch of other ones, but still love the regular ones (without those disgusting rutabagas....LOL)

    Oh wait - that's not what the OP meant. Sorry about that.

    Well what do you expect from a county that eats spotted d...

    You know. I just didn't want to get the thread locked. But seriously, is that a real dish or was that made up for the movies?
