    Man the name of the dish is so not the point of this community. I stand by Lemmy in present state is far worse than reddit for pedantic or toxic behavior.

    It looks really good OP, nice job! I’d eat it regardless of what you called it.

      Agreed that people are getting too feisty up in here.

      But that said, I’m a big fan of making WHATEVER topped-with-potatoes pie out of leftovers, and I’m sure my wife and I have done it with things that would cause the purists to lose their damn minds. I think we’re gonna make one with leftover Ethiopian this week.

      Thanks lol so many people butt hurt about the name . I’m pretty sure the frozen shepherds pie you can buy at the grocery store also doesn’t have lamb . It was very good I ate the whole thing and was super full .

      I suspect there’s a direct correlation between education level and urges to be pedantic. When schooling hammered vocabulary into your head and punished you for misusing it, vocabulary being misused becomes tougher to enjoy.

      Toxic though? You’re not insulting or harassing someone, unless they’re really thin-skinned.
