The other day, I mentioned to my coworkers I had no idea what a mincemeat pie was.
This is a mincemeat pieSo it was decided I had to try one.
This is me eating a mincemeat pie.
It turns out that there is no actual meat in a mincemeat pie. Rather, it is a a fruit pie (with several fruits inside). Though one of my coworkers assures me that at sometime in the distant past, there actually was meat included. hence the name.
This is the inside of a mincemeat pie -- no meat is to be foundSo happily, one mystery of living in London is solved.
Aahh... how'bout Yorkshire batter... er... pudding?
