The fly pie in question is an Eccles cake full of currants (the flies) seen above.I've gathered some funny names together of dishes and food based items us Brits recognise as part of our food culture. I would love to hear from you if you can include any more. Thanks too to my blogging friend Marian for helping me out and making me laugh at our nation's quirkiness.
In no particular order:
Fly Pies
Bubble and Squeak
Singing hinnies
Pork Scratchings
Soldiers with soft boiled eggs
Mushy peas
Battered sausages
Bangers and Mash
Bickies
Butties
Crumpets
The Parson's nose
Spotted Dick
Toad in the hole
After all that lot, as we Brits say - "I'm stuffed!"

Don't forget Devils on horseback (sardines on toast), pigs in blankets (sausages with bacon wrapped round them) and Surf 'n' turf (fish and chips)
