Safest places to canoe in the USA after a nuclear war

Ah pasties. The miners in Cornwall and other parts of the UK invented them.
Elko county, NV is full of mines and there is a pastie shop in Elko. A very handy way to carry your food around. Sweet or savory.
The only other place I have seen pasties is Jamaica.
 
I can get pasties in Northeast Pa. I always associated them with the East European community, who were mostly coal miners. They may have learned about them from the English and Welch, who were their bosses down in the mines.

I was never a big fan of that dry dough but I'd eat one right now if I had one.
 
Pasties are available in the UP and some are tasty. I had a friend from Green Bay WI who had a side business commercially producing pasties, which were not. Sorry Pete.

When Gamma mentioned poutine, the best I have ever had was from a small mom and pop food trailer parked in an alley between two commercial buildings in Ignace ON, a small place on the Trans-Canadian highway where Hwy 599 heads north. When I complimented the counter guy he told me the excellent gravy which dressed the fries was his wife’s mother’s recipe. Really good burgers too.
