In this special episode of the Mark and Pete Show, we celebrate Cornish Pasties at then culminatino of Cornish Pasty Week  by delving into the exciting events that took place, culminating in the World’s Fastest Amateur Pasty Crimper competition. Held on March 1, 2025, at the Great Cornish Food Store in Truro, this inaugural event showcased the rich heritage and community spirit of Cornwall. We explore the origins and cultural significance of the Cornish pasty, a culinary icon with Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) status, ensuring its traditional recipe and methods are preserved. The art of crimping, essential for sealing the pasty and maintaining its integrity during baking, was at the heart of the competition. Participants, both adults and under-16s, demonstrated their speed and precision in crimping three pasties as quickly as possible, each with at least 18 crimps.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/mark-and-pete--1245374/support.Supporters get updates on new projects and hot takes on the latest news plus Mark and Pete Extra  in depth commentary episodes and Mark and Pete vs AI  comedy episodes.
