Cottage pie - also known as?

The article mentions that cottage pie is also known as shepherd's pie. Perhaps this is true in other countries, but in Ireland (the topic of this article) cottage pie is made using minced beef, while shepherd's pie is made using minced lamb. ^Mac Tíre _Cowag 22:48, 7 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am a chef and this is absolutely correct it's only called shepherd's pie when made with minced Lamb. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Janvantonder (talk • contribs) 15:18, 2 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Black pudding picture

It's a shame that the picture associated with the black pudding is for a non-Irish version of the dish. Didn't see anything convenient and better to replace it with though. –Donal Fellows (talk) 12:19, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Any searches here http://www.flickr.com/search/?l=commderiv will be fair game. Let me know if you need help. By the way, black pudding is gross. :) Anna Frodesiak (talk) 12:54, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

A picture of Irish black pudding has been uploaded and introduced. By the way, black pudding is delicious. — O'Dea (talk) 08:27, 30 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Is the cuisine Irish?

The following items in this list are not in any sense Irish cuisine, but international cuisine imported to Ireland largely by fast-food outlets:

Batter burger, Breakfast roll, Curry chips, Garlic cheese chips, Jambon, Snack box, Spice bag, Spice burger, Taco chips

The fact that they are available in Ireland does not make them Irish.

Please note also that despite an earlier conversation Cottage pie is still described as made of beef.In Ireland it is never made with beef, rather lamb or mutton, the same as Irish stew (never beef). Ohuanam (talk) 09:56, 17 September 2020 (UTC)[reply]

I definitely don't agree with your assertion about the list of food there, in particular the Spice bag and the Spice burger are very Irish, invented and manufactured in Ireland respectively. The Breakfast roll has a large cultural pop cultural significance, as well as the Batter burger (as mentioned in the article on Pattys). The sauce to make curry chips is a large market in Ireland. Garlic cheese chips could be viewed as Irish as Canadian Poutine, and have a strong association with Irish fast food chains such as Supermacs, similar with taco chips and Abrakebabra. Are jambons in the Irish form found anywhere else?

I would agree that traditionally the shepherd's pie and stew were made with other meats other than beef, but probably not so much the case anymore. I have some books I recently bought on Irish food, so that I can definitely find a strong citation for.

My issue I have with your assertion here is that it seems to reject the more modern foods that are made, sold and are popular in Ireland, and that it seems to place fast or deli food in an "other" category which creates a false hierarchy. This is not the "cuisine" of Ireland, these are Irish dishes - i.e. food that has developed a peculiarly Irish form or is unique to Irish food outlets.
