Urban Dictionary: maggot-bag
The Urban dictionary does not have an answer.
Maggot pie = meat pie
Maggot bag = a bag of maggots ??
So I assume the meat in the meat pie is small chunks and some of the chunks look like a maggot.
I understand a bag of maggots would be a disgusting thing. Does it have some special meaning to a baker? Please explain to a clueless Okie.

Morning all.
You've pretty much worked it out Glen. Here's the urban dictionary link
Urban Dictionary: Maggot Bag
The meat in the pie (depending upon it's origin) can often be called into question in regards to the quantity and what could be defined as meat (a bit like lips and bums in a snag - sausage). Hence there may be a significant amount of ground grissle in the 'gravy'. Thus the maggot appearance. Most of the time they are still very tasty - you do get the odd dodgy one. The more quality pies have a greater meat to gravy ratio.
The pies are mass produced in a bakery and a quality baker will probably take offense to their pie being associated with maggots. It's something you may say around mates when referencing a pie, but you wouldn't normally refer to one when purchasing unless you knew the baker well, or you wanted to offend them (especially if they sold you a dodgy pie).
