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

[-] brisk@aussie.zone 4 points 8 months ago

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).
