Usually it’s just raw meat and produce that are prohibited. Just bring it. The worst that can happen is that Irish customs agents get a slice of Americana.

sure if you want to get simultaneously body-slammed, pepper-sprayed, and tased.

are you kidding? do you think people should be allowed to fly pies willie nillie hither and yon at will? shirley, you jest.

I agree with kevbo. Sometimes they confiscate it, and sometimes they don’t. May as well give it a try.

Why not just bring a can of pumpkin pie filling w. you and make the pie in Ireland? There will be flour, sugar, salt and assuredly lard, thereby guaranteeing a short and traditional crust.
