Tuna and egg? Is this some kind of new cat food?

[hippie-chick.livejournal.com]

I like tuna. Just not the canned crap. My cat likes that stuff though. This pie looks gross.

Thank you for opening the door to disgusting pie ads - I wasn't sure which way this contest would go. ;D

Agree with the "this is gross" comments, but check out the alternative lifestyle friendly logo on the can!

That caught my eye, too. Where's Charlie?

[bradygirl_12]

Yes! Because this is a pretty creative way to use pie, though I'm not sure if the world is ready for fish pie. Though Ginger did make it when she had to pretend to be Mary Ann. ;)

Do you not have this in the US? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fisherman%27s_pie

Yeah, the closest the US comes to savory pies most of the time are individually-sized "pot pies", and fish is not a flavor those ever come in -- turkey, beef and chicken are common. I like the idea myself, but I'm weird that way.

We generally don't have fish pie, though have dishes close to it. I love fish myself! :)

Maybe I'm just gross, but I think this sounds decent. I'd at least give it a try. My kids would never eat it, though.

Ha ha, my mom used to make something like this in the 1970's. It was called "Tuna Crunch Pie". It had Tuna, mayo, sour cream, onions, dill and eggs all mixed together in the middle of it. The crust was a cheddar pie crust and there was cheddar pie crust crumble, with walnuts, on top of it.

Sounds weird but I still get a craving for it occasionally!

I like tuna casserole but that looks eighteen different kinds of disgusting. For the sake of the poor child, though, I'll give it a sympathy YES.

I generally love savoury pies, but that just looks disgusting.

I love tuna sandwiches. I've always wanted to make a tuna pie, but in my mind it would have tuna, potatoes, and cheese. Not whatever that thing is.

[mjspice.livejournal.com]

I'd eat it if it wasn't tuna. :S

[booksandcheeses.livejournal.com]

Oh, barf-o. But... yes. Just because it's so weird.
