Default Cornish Pasty wars Clashing over prices
[Pasty wars! Shop owner in Cornwall seaside
town clashes with furious locals over
£10 pasties... and says she wants to
charge even More (despite rivals being much cheaper)]





I would buy that £6:50
because it is Fresh.

Eat it outside.

I'd want chips and beans or peas or gravy with it for that price.

If people want to buy it then I don't see the issue, it's like Artisan bread at 9.00 a loaf, it sells, she is probably up at the crack of dawn baking the things so good on her for not selling them on the cheap

Ginsters are nasty

I'm happy paying for a proper homemade pasty, £6.50 is definitely at the pricey end but that's Cornwall for you

You can buy Cornish pasties by post. A box from Cornwall of 10 costs £33

£6.50 seems steep, £5 maybe. The £3.50 mark-up to sit in is a bit much too...
