The more savory a pie gets, the more I like it. Pumpkin pie is okay. Mince meat is fine. Turkey is great!

This meme does meat pies dirty (unless “mincemeat pie” is one of those horribly deceptive terms like “mince pie”)

Pumpkin pie is the devil.
But there is something amazing about chicken/turkey pot pies or other savory pies in that vein.

French meat pie (Tourtiere) was always my favorite part of family Thanksgiving.

A mincemeat pie is another name for a mince pie. So yeah.

Mincemeat is not the same, at least where I’m from… Mincemeat is dried fruit and spices, no meat

Where I’m from “mince pie” is dried fruit and spices, while “mince” is equivalent to the US ground beef (or less commonly other meats), and a “meat pie” is made from beef mince.
It made for frustrating Christmasses as a child because mini meat pies (“party pies”) are delicious and available at every other celebration.

Thankfully that’s not the case here in NZ. Otherwise the rather popular mince-n-cheese pie would be weird.
Today, ‘mincemeat’ as a term by itself, is unusual. It’s usually either just ‘mince’ (meat) or ‘fruit-mince’ (not meat).

Then I take it back. I have never been as disappointed as the first time I was offered a “mince” pie

Mincemeat it is made from dried fruit and booze.
S’far as I can tell it’s the filing in mince pie.
But like. Ew. No way there’s enough booze in there to make that sound attractive.

I guess, if you don’t like raisins and currants? It’s just a fruit pie, I don’t really see what’s so horrible about that. It’d be more understandable if we were talking about a fly cemetery, a similar pastry with a much more interesting name.
