FOR YEARS THE PASTY has been the staple of a trucker’s diet.
Convenient, filling and tasty, this chiller cabinet favourite is the quick way to satisfy the hunger only a man on the open road can generate.
Now motorway service operator Roadchef is attempting to take the Cornish icon upmarket. In the coming months, it will be trialling bak ery chain Pasty Presto at service stations in Norton Canes, on the M6 toll, and M5 sites Sedgemoor and Taunton Deane South.
Anyone who finds themselves in these locations can tuck in to such outlandish pasty flavours as: bacon, leek and cheese; Thai chicken; and chilli beef. As Catherine Tate would say: “The dirty bastards.” Pasty Presto MD Steve says: “We are delighted to be working with Roadchef to extend our offering and bring Pasty products di rect to motorists.” And we are sure the truckers of Britain will be delighted to eat them, even if they do have foreign flavours.
