In particulalr, Melton Mowbray pork pies, containing sage flecked pork and jelly in a golden pastry crust; and Stilton cheese, which originated in the village of Stilton, a short distance from Melton Mowbray. The town is also home to Melton Cloth, a thick, woolen, heavily milled nap cloth used in sailors' peacoats and donkey jackets, as well as loggers 'cruising jackets' and Mackinaws. Melton Mowbray is also said to be home of the phrase 'painting the town red', said to come from when the Marquess of Waterford and his hunting companions liberally applied red paint to buildings in the main street after a succesful hunt.
