Cressida replies: Pasties of a wide variety of types and flavours are 
widely eaten in all parts of the UK. The most traditional kind is the 
Cornish pasty which is filled with meat and potato and generally has 
shortcrust pastry folded around the filling. They can have any kind 
of savoury filling though and somethimes have puff pastry instead. 
You can buy them fresh from bakeries and pre-packed and frozen in all 
types of food shops.
