It’s going to be a very regional competition - I wouldn’t even know where to find a mince pie in Seattle. Which I imagine is going to be a pretty common problem for much of the world.
As a side note - I was curious if those countries the Southern Hemisphere, (and thus a warm sunny XMas), would be as into Mince Pies, but a quick google of turned up Yes!
Mince pie is a thing in America, they're just much larger than the British treat. From what I can tell, it's a similar filling, just, expanded to a full-size pie.
In my experience, you can find it in any supermarket around Thanksgiving and Christmas.
