When referring to that crusted meat, fruit, cheese, or veggie delight, you should spell it Py. To honor George Villiers, Duke of Buckingham's immortal criticism of John Dryden's "Conquest of Granada."
"A py a pudding, a pudding a py,
A py for me and a pudding for thee.
A pudding for me and a py for thee,
And a pudding-py for me and thee."
