Talking of mash leads me straight on to YouTube’s next top British food destination, to sample a “hugely popular dish” that the vast majority of British people have never eaten and which is becoming more and more rare. But first a bit of history.
Uhhhh...
What British person has never eaten a pie?
They're on the menu of every pub that serves food (almost always with mash), available widely in supermarkets, butchers and service stations, and are a staple at Scottish football grounds. They are a popular dish to make at home, and you can often get them at late night kebab shops and chippies.
And that's only hot pies - Melton Mowbray pork pies enjoy their own protected geographical indication, and are widely available across the country.
This is a horrible slur on the excellent meat pie.
