Pork pies :)
Pork pies come from the United Kingdom. They are made from a hot water crust pastry (lard melted in hot water and milk to which flour is added to make the pastry). The filling is made of minced pork, pork fat, bacon,and spices. A hole is left in the top of the pie when it is baked. When it is cooked, savoury pork jelly (made like a porky stock with lots of gelatin from pork bones and a pigs trotter) is warmed and poured into the pie. The pie is traditionally eaten cold with the jelly set.
Sweet pies have a sweet filling and a sweet pastry. (i.e the filling and pastry contain sugar). Savory pies do not.
