Not even big enough to feed a pigeon?This Cornish pastie has just arrived and I’m not sure whether to eat it in the motorway services tomorrow en route to Cumbria or for supper when we have arrived. It’s large enough perhaps to do both.

Cornish Cream!……..Cornish Cream! 😳 Proper Clotted Cream is made in Devon, and only Devon.Nice with Cornish clotted cream after having two Cornish pasties,wash down with Cornish Tea
When I lived in Plymouth St Budeaux there were a number of Dewdney pasty shops in our vicinity and the Dockyard/Naval Base too. The pasties were very good, although at that time there wasn't a great deal of competition.Cornish Cream!……..Cornish Cream! 😳 Proper Clotted Cream is made in Devon, and only Devon.
The Cornish attempt to produce the Devon invention…….The Pasty, but second best again. 👍
It's an artificial political issue - probably starting with the French insisting that champagne can only be called that if made in the Champagne region.Is there such a thing as Devon cream as it is probably brought in from other counties just like Cornish pasties? After all there is no definite proof that the Cornish pasty originated in Cornwall. The main difference is that you can buy a very tasty Cornish pie in Scotland where it will probably be a lot cheaper than buying it in Cornwall.
Go to a supermarket and buy a Spanish beer and if you check, it is probably brewed in England. If it tastes nice to me, I don't care where it originated.![]()
