The Michigan Pasty
A pasty is a whole meal wrapped up in a pastry envelope. Brought to the U.S. by Cornish miners who worked in the iron and copper mines of Michigan's Upper Peninsula, the pasty was often heated on a shovel held over the candle miners wore in their hats. Michiganians today still enjoy this tasty dish. It's become the unofficial state dish!
