Only pasties made in Cornwall to the traditional recipe can be labelled 'Cornish pasties' after a ruling from Brussels
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pasty
A pasty (pronounced /ˈpæsti/ Cornish: Hogen; Pasti), known in (West) Cornish dialect as tiddy/teddy oggy/oggin,[1][2] and sometimes as pastie in the United States,[3][4] is a filled pastry case, commonly associated with Cornwall, a county of England in the United Kingdom. It differs from a pie as it is made by placing the filling on a flat pastry shape, usually a circle, and folding it to wrap the filling, crimping the edge to form a seal. The result is a raised semicircular package. The traditional Cornish pasty, which has Protected Geographical Indication (PGI) status in Europe, is filled with beef, sliced or diced potato, swede (also known as a rutabaga) and onion, and is baked. Pasties with many different fillings are made; some shops specialise in selling all sorts of pasties. For a pasty to be considered authentic, the filling ingredients must never be cooked before they are wrapped in the pastry casing; that is the main difference between a pasty and an empanada.
