Streisand shares a love for UK pasties

Barbra Streisand has said she loves British food, including Yorkshire pudding and pasties.

The actress and singer has said she does not understand the negative comments about cuisine in the UK and is a fan of traditional favourites.

In a radio interview, the Oscar-winning star confessed her appreciation for tea, scones and shepherd’s pie.

Streisand said: “I love coming there – and the food of course. I never understood why many years ago people said the food in London was not great.”
