Pasty
British Snack
Pasty is a popular snack in the UK, especially in Cornwall, with a distinct regional emphasis.

When visiting Cornwall, try their famous Cornish pasty.
Savory Filling
'Pasty' specifically refers to savory fillings, not sweet ones, making it different from desserts like pies.

I prefer a chicken pasty over a fruit pie for my midday snack.
Handheld Pie
Pasties are designed to be eaten without cutlery, hence their half-moon shape that's easy to hold.

I grabbed a pasty on my way to the meeting; no fork needed.
