Tribal People Try Pie

Every time the tribe has tasted pie: 17 videos of first impressions from villagers in rural Punjab, Pakistan, usually American food they have never seen before.

What it is

Pie is a pastry case filled with something sweet or savoury and baked: American apple and pumpkin pie, British steak pie and shepherd's pie, Australian meat pies. The videos include both dessert and dinner pies.

What to watch for

Savoury pies make immediate sense — meat inside bread is a samosa idea — and go down well. Sweet pies with cinnamon and soft fruit are more foreign; pumpkin pie in particular, since pumpkin here is a vegetable for salan.

The village comparison

Samosa is the village pie. Any pastry with filling is measured against a good samosa, and the pastry usually loses on crispness while the filling is judged case by case.
