There's also flavour of Britain in Capistrano ... Just off Del Obispo ... although I don't specifically remember if they have pasties!!!

PS: Yes, definitely watch the sell by/use by dates in Nina's ... I've also noticed that sometimes the packaging can be ripped!

My local Walmart has them [don't know when they first had them]. Good enough to get you through a craving, but you still can't beat cooking your own stuff, no matter what it is.

What I want to know is where can I find a decent scotch egg? Can't find the right sausage meat anywhere.

Who fancies Cornish pasty flavoured crisps?? Tescos are now selling Lusty Pirate crisps which apparently taste of cornish pasties!!!

Walkers are also piloting 6 new flavours suggested by the public with the winner of the most votes winning £50,000 and the flavour to added to their range. Only tasted 2 so far - Duck and hoisin (yuck) and chili and chocolate (not bad) going for the Builders Breakfast next (bacon, eggs, toast and ketchup!!). Cajun squirrel sounds interesting - wonder if there is a disclaimer that no wildlife were harmed in the production of these crisps.

I am a man so don't cook. My mother could but she has passed on to the great apple pie kitchen in the sky. I will tell you when they arrive if they were worth 25 quid.

Correction, you're a man who doesnt cook

I'll do you 10 for $35 but you've got to collect.

I also do cheese and onion.

If you want more British food, you should try the British Food Shop in Laguna Niguel (just off Crown Valley Parkway). Things in there have a much longer sell by! I have a feeling I might have seen some pasties in there too. Anyway, here is the weblink to the shop... def worth a visit! It's tucked away, on what feels a bit like an Industrial Estate... but it's a gem of a find!

I went to the British Food Shop today - much better than Nina's so thanks for the info. Sounds lame but I really enjoyed biting into a Penguin and then pouring Birds custard!!

Bacon for breakfast tomorrow :-)

I know there is a place in AZ that sells but won't deliver. Any Pasty heads out there help a cornish bro out?

Thanks
If you find some pasties you better let me know, pm me if you have to.

I have to report that the 4 14oz pasties I ordered from pasty.com arrived as promised in 2 days and were consumed with much delight by this ex Cornish resident and two Americans! I know pasty tastes will vary but I would recommend pasty.com to anyone. Only one point - they were a little dry and were improved with a generous helping of chutney. Shame I didnt have any Sharwoods Mango but what I found here was ok.
