TikTok Duo Ignites UK Pie Debate: Wigan's Meat and Potato Pie Sets High Bar

A popular TikTok travel duo, Ryan and Jade, have embarked on a culinary journey across the United Kingdom to settle a long-standing debate: which region boasts the superior pie? Their latest video chronicles their visit to Wigan, a town in the North renowned for its pies. The couple stopped at Galloway's Bakers, a local institution established in 1971, to sample their famous meat and potato pie, uniquely served in a barm cake. Jade explained, "You can't get a pie in Wigan without getting a barm cake." Ryan, after tasting the regional delicacy, rated it an impressive 8.3 out of 10, acknowledging Galloway's popularity. However, he expressed some reservation about the "double carbs" of the pie and barm cake combination. The video concludes with Ryan and Jade preparing to travel south to London, challenging viewers to suggest establishments that could rival Wigan's offering. This ongoing quest highlights regional culinary traditions and sparks engaging discussions among food enthusiasts nationwide.
