I think southerners like pies, but only the northerners know how to make them properly.

I wonder if the American in the first answer realises this is a British question and that our pies include Steak and Kidney, Meat and Potato, Chicken and Mushroom and Meat pies.

Americans can't believe we have meat in our pies.

I'm from Berkshire and I love pies! Pork pie, steak and kidney pie, game pie, fish pie, and the dessert pies as well. Imagine a world without pies! It would be a sad and sorry place.

Answer 8

In the South of England, people are generally more healthier your average male in surrey lives to 78-80 and in Glasgows poor east end will live on average to 63....this is due to wealth inequalities, poor diet etc...
In the South of England many people enjoy pies....and why not they are tasty and a British delicacy.

In London there is many traditional shops that sell pie and mash and liquor.especially the east end.

In lancashire there are many pie makers and the butter pie and meat and potate pie is extremley popular.

In The town of Wigan the locals are known to many in the Northwest as pie eaters due to the traditions of pie making /eating .

a PIE IS A POPULAR SNACK AT A FOOTBALL GAME. NICE AND WARMING AND COMFORTING..

IN Scotland in the chip shops deep fry pies. both steak pies and mince pie/

Answer 9

No, Southerners eat the same as Northerners, and even consider Shepherds & Cottage Pie, & Yorkshire pudding as posh!

Answer 10

Lancashire is known for it's pies, but that doesn't mean people from the North love eating them. Do people in Cornwall all eat cornish pasties? Do people from Yorkshire eat yorkshire puddings? I'm from the North West and I rarely eat pies. Everyone eats what they want to eat - supermarkets are full of a large variety of things.

Answer 11

Are you forgetting the mighty Cornish Pasty, that's pretty much a pie in a funny shape and has all the qualities of a good pie: questionable ingredients, horrifically unhealthy and an amazing taste.

Answer 12

I am from the North and my wife is from the south. We both enjoyed a steak pie for lunch today.

Answer 13

I'm from Lancashire and love pies. But Melton Mowbray pies are a Southern thing, aren't they? So they must cherish them, too.

I lived in US for a few years, btw, and there isn't ONE decent pie to be had.

Cool Breeze, you gonk, you're in UK and Ireland Yahoo. Brits really don't care about Pecan Pies and Key Lime Pies 'cos they're not real PIES. PIES is PIES, my man.

Answer 14

I love pies and I`m from The flat as a pancake... *mmmm!*... Fens.....chicken and carrot pie, carrot and kidney pie, beef and carrot pie....any pie really but it must have carrots.. `cos we got loads of `em around here.

Answer 15

What sort of pie?

I'm a southerner and I love all sorts of pies: pork, beef & onion, chicken & mushroom, Melton Mowbray, apple, mince, blueberry, cherry, Scotch pie (bacon), etc. etc.
We also have pasties: Cornish, top sealed, corned beef, (not chocolate curry though).

Answer 16

No.

A Pie and Mash with a side of jellied eels and liquor is about as Londoner as you can get.
