I'm all for trying new things and learning about classic Lancashire foods - but this might have been too far
Sometimes curiosity can get the better of you and often, it's seen as a good thing to try new things.
As a self-confessed foodie, I'm all about trying new foods and being open-minded about different delicacies. I also love finding out about delicacies specific to Lancashire, including Whinberry Pie, Throdkin, Tosset Cake and a John Bull.So, when I visited Ormskirk market in late May and spotted a Lancashire food I hadn't even heard of, let alone tried, curiosity got the better of me.
As I visited the market in the afternoon, some stalls such as bakeries and foodstuff had started to sell out, with items from Mr Thompsons being no exception. In fact, the vast majority of items had completely sold out by the time I got there - apart from one - the whist pie. Taking my new food item away with me, I did some research to find out all about the pastry. Whist pies are commonplace in Lancashire and are raised hot-water double-crust pies, of slightly oval form and filled with special salt meat and jelly.
