I'm having a fantastic time here in the UK and I thought I'd write 1 tell you about something I've eaten which I loved!
As you know, I'm in a place called Cornwall, 2 is in the south west. They have something called a Cornish Pasty. It looks like a parcel made of pastry and the pastry holds together a mixture of meat and vegetables. Cornish pasties have 3 interesting history. In the past, they were the basic meal for Cornish miners who worked underground digging for tin. After a hard morning's work the miners would sit down to eat 4 lunch. But because of the job they were doing, their hands 5 covered in dangerous materials. The design of the pasty meant they could eat the meat and vegetables before throwing away the dirty pastry.
I don't know if it's true and it seems 6 shame that they couldn't eat all of it! You can get Cornish pasties anywhere in the UK but I've been told the best ones are in Cornwall.
