What? No pasties?

Read in another post, that there were no pasties at St Dennis for the Cup Finals.

Why are clubs not selling the staple diet of Cornwall?

From memory, Bodmin, Falmouth, Newquay and Camelford are examples of clubs selling burgers and not pasties.

WHY?

The clubs greed for money- not much profit in pasties !

You are very amusing Al. 

You do make me laugh how you go out of your way to be obnoxious. 

Probably my nature - the same as people are towards me !

Clubs don't run on air. 

Food and drink is a better earner than gate money for most clubs. Think about it, £1.50 for a wholesale pasty (for example), sell one (or even two) to a hungry punter for £3.00. 100% profit on the mark up. Everybody's happy.

In all fairness £1 was a reasonable price, the portion was quite large.

Being a conisiur of Cornish Pasties here are my top three 1) Hampsons of Hayle 2) Auntie Avis's St Kew Highway (3 Pips Pasties Penryn and Premier Pasties at St Columb Major at only 1 pound eighty p each highly commended. Used to be a place down Helston called Mothers but don't think they are there now although Horse and Jockey were always good. Any other thoughts. Truro City used to get there's from Etheringtons

Sometime there are issues in Cornwall more important than football. Like scones (or scones), warm or cold, jam or cream on 1st. Saffron cake. Is it ok to put butter on a slice?

Best saffron cake used to be couches .loved there tea treat buns .deffinitly not butter thats sacrilege  .

Pips are the best around here by a country mile. 

The best of all times were Belbins at Penryn, cooked in a traditional coke oven and along with their bread were exquisite. The flavour was out of this world as they were cooked slowly with none of the fan assisted ovens of today which dries everything up. Little wonder there were queues down the street every lunchtime.

Going back a bit there Al.

The thread was about pasties not football, nice to hear some other views, when I was  a lad the only pasties you could get in Truro were Blewetts then along came Barnicotes but your mother always made the best. Nice to have a sideways step before the season starts. Come on you White Seaguls.

Isn't this just classic, someone asks a simple question and as per usual.....

 

The question was about clubs not selling pasties.

Are there any clubs that do sell a good pasty?  I know i've had one at Liskeard on a senior cup final day, but that may have been a one off. And i think i saw em at Newquay.

Mary’s pasties grampound are quite nice.

Mary's Pastys. No idea why it's spelled this way, but it is. And they're good :)

Bray and K's of Redruth one of the best around at the moment.

Yeah, really good pasties and lovely staff. Their sausage rolls are excellent too. I've not had an egg and bacon pie from there but they look fantastic.
