Pasties, in American English (and maybe some other places, I'm not sure) are little round scraps of fabric or other material used to cover one's nipples when your breasts are otherwise exposed.

That makes so much more sense. In the British Isles, these are pasties:

Yeah IDK American English is really fucking weird, coming from an American. I think we're not just using the word differently, we also pronounce it differently; the anon above said that they pronounce it pah-stees, but here in the U.S. I've always heard it pronounced pay-stees. So I think it's a false cognate, pretty much?

[(Anonymous)]

There's parts of the US where those are pasties as well, so it's not an unknown usage (specifically Michigan I believe but they're not unknown generally). But the pronunciation is different - the nipple covering is pronounced like "pasty", as in, like paste.

[aubry]

Yeah, I figured that was probably how the pronunciation worked. Cause they're pasted on. I just got a really weird image in my head when I first read that, because I've never heard the word before.

That's how it works in Wisconsin, too. Call the food "pay-stees" and everyone laughs because "pay-stees" = "things you cover your nipples with" and the food = "pah-stees" (where the "pah" uses the same "a" sound as in "hat").

Welp, now I have an image in my head of a woman covered in baked goods.

It's a pretty nice image.
