They are pretty much the same, other than the meat, no idea why, probably every one wanted to name their own dish. Food can be a very territorial thing.
As a fun fact, do you like scones? And do you know about the debate of whether you should put jam or cream first on the scone? That's a very entertaining debate, google it to humour yourself if you haven't heard about 😋
I've heard of the debate, however I have yet to understand the concept of the traditional scone. I hear them translated as biscuits in other cultures, though from what I've seen, they don't look like biscuits as I think of them at all. It's really fantastic the things we'll get into arguments about isn't it? :))
They're a big part of a traditional English afternoon tea. You must try them next time you're in the UK
