Patty vs. Patty is a 2022 Canadian short documentary film, directed by Chris Strikes.[1] The film recounts the true story of the "patty wars" of 1985, when restaurants in Toronto which served Jamaican patties had to fight a bureaucratic edict that they could not call their product a "patty", on the grounds that consumers might confuse them with hamburger patties,[2] through a mixture of documentary footage and satirical dramatic reenactments performed by actor Orville Cummings.[1]
