Rating Mince Pies

[Hawkings Boots]

Lidl mini pie selection (sugar topping, spiced pastry one and a one with a chocolate star on)

Totally disappointing. Bad aftertaste

Worst so far - 2/5 and that's being generous

We got sent some fortnum and masons last year at work for a bloke who’d already left.

They were f***ing smashing. Bet they cost a bomb if you were paying mind.

Will be getting some of these from my visit to London this weekend.

Our office has decided to rate mince pies, which basically means that one of us has to obtain them from various places around so we can all scoff them and give them a mark out of five.

So far we've had:
Morrisons - 3/5
Greggs - 3.5/5
And we're about to have Co-ops - review pending.

I like Aldi's salted caramel mince pies but I'm not bringing them in if people are already saying they're not keen.
Don't know what they're missing.

Have you found any particularly tasty mince pies yet?
Please help make my days less tedious - and more tasty.

I bet the hours the fly by where you work

No wonder man.

cheers, tbh i have never even tried a sweet mince pie. just dont like the sound of it.

It's a mince pie you get at Christmas! How the hell have you never had one?!

 

[MackemBob]

Morrison’s Black Forest ones are shite. Hardly any mincemeat in them and a blob of oversweet cherry stuff in the centre. 2/10.

had a tesco finest last night. Was decent, could taste the cognac it's cooked in. 7/10

I can't say I rate Mini Pies. Pastry to filling ratio is frigged.
