Scottish peeps carbs in scotch pie??

[taylormade]

I’m going to Scotland for a holiday and always love a Scotch pie. Are they completely out and any idea how many carbs?

I like pies, bit I would not eat these ones to many carbs.

As with most foods if you Google "Scotch Pies carbs" you will get your answer, which is probably that they are too high in carbs.

If you are settled on a low carb way of eating then a Scotch pie at the start of a day out and about should do little damage - one every day for a week with little activity, not such a good idea.

I have an obliging other half who let's me have a bite or 2 of his. That's always enough to satisfy the taste or craving, but not enough to do much damage, if any.
Some things I've tried this way I now find I no longer like...including bread!

Off the top of my head, I feel like a scotch pie should be better than the other pies: the crust is so thin and hard, and there's so much densely packed fatty meat and soupy grease inside. Made with lard too. It depends how resistant you are I suppose, but I'm pretty sure you could have one and walk it off. Maybe try it, test your levels and see how it works out. I don't think it will be too bad as far as treats go. Anyway, enjoy Scotland- wish I was going!
