Feed me a decent steak & ale pie, and I'm yours

You brits and your pies.

It makes me think of Sweeney Todd

lol! I'll admit, I'd try one... as long as it's not made from dead humans.

Also, I like sweet pies way better than cake.

I used to work with an older lady from England and around the holidays, she would tell us all that she had some spotted dick. I had to bite my tongue to keep from laughing each and every time

We have sweet pies over here, just not as popular as in the states and more of a dessert as well. Where as a Steak Pie or chicken pie will be your whole meal. That's if anybody can get at the pies whilst I'm eating it lol.

We have a lot of those over here:

Spotted Dick
Beef Wellington
Faggots (Yes, really)
Bubble and Squeak
Toad in the Hole

It's just stupid/innuendo bingo

WHY IS IT CALLED SPOTTED DICK THOUGH?!

I like pot pies, they are yummy- but not exactly health food.

I had a vegan shepherd's pie once that wasn't too bad health-wise (substitute mashed potatoes for flaky crust. But that said, the flaky crust makes the pie, imo

I'm a little disappointed it doesn't have a vanilla glaze on it.

Ask and you shall recieve:

Quote:The name has long been a source of amusement and double entendres, to the point that the catering staff of Flintshire County Council decided in 2009 to rename it to "Spotted Richard" because of all the jokes they were receiving.

While "spotted" is a clear reference to the dried fruit in the pudding (which resemble spots), "dick" is more obscure. The word was widely used as a term for pudding in the 19th century; in late 19th century Huddersfield, for instance, a glossary of local terms described "Dick, plain pudding. If with treacle sauce, treacle dick."

It could alternatively be a corruption of the word pudding, evolving through puddink, then puddick, then finally dick. Another possibility is that it is a corruption of "dough".

Basically us English didn't ever find it funny until somebody pointed out the word "dick" is also for a penis
