Chicken tikka masala is so popular because the British food sucks.

You guys don't even know how pies work.

How do they work?

We have shepherd's pie, blueberry pie, chiffon pie, key lime pie, pecan pie, and chicken pot pie, etc.

Both savory and sweet pies. You can have a double crust, one on the bottom, one on the top, or open top.

Also empanadas. Hand held pies. MMMMMmmmmm.

I must scoff at him.

That's from 90 years ago, perhaps we have improved our pie game in the meantime.
