Is it a true Cornish Pasty though or something like a Ginsters?

No it's where you are born. Same as you're not from London or Oxford just cos you've live(d) there, you are from Swindon.
Doesn't matter if I spent the next 50 years in London, I'd still be a Cumbrian. And proud
But the place where i was born is just that - i may have been born in germany (like my sister) but it makes no odds whatsoever, youre from where youd call home IMO

Yes you can.
Mainly as Rick Stein is an expert at Fish and Chips, albeit not as good as me, but hey, it is what he is known for.
Being more Cornish than that would include visiting Philps Pasties in Hayle and eating your pasty on the beach, which I did around 6 weeks ago.
Also, Philps is a traditional family run bakery that has been in Cornwall since I can remember, I am also friends with the owners son as I went to school with him.

You are only going with your argument cos you have been found to not actually support your home football team after all the lip you have given everyone else

I used to work for these, and they are old family friends.
My Dad used to be a business partner kind of with them 
Also, the company I work for are now in a contract with them to develop some of their land 
EDIT: Also, what is a Pastie?

So you are Cornish?
Do you have any Yorkshire in you?

A pastie? No idea.
A Pasty is a Cornish piece of heave.
Pasties are several Cornish pieces of heaven.
