Is it too early to start tucking into Mince Pies?

Is it?

It’s past Boxing Day last year, so definitely no. Never too early.

Is it?

So is it the Waitrose all butter mince pies or the M&S collection pack of six?

 

[Cooperman]

And no, there is no such thing as mince pie downtime.

I had a Christmas pud after Sunday roast a couple of weeks back. I’m the only one who eats it and there was one mini one left from last year.

I‘ve still got a M&S Christmas pud that I haven’t eaten from last year. Best before August 2023. Better late than never.

Bought my first box of the season in last weekend’s big shop.

The quorp used to do the best mince pies and Xmas puds. Even better in January when they were half price. Not been to one for a couple of years, now I'll have to go again.

Ha ha, that’s a word from the past. Quorp.

It is too early if, like me, you think mince pies (and Christmas pudding) are disgusting. I'm confident I'm in the minority on this issue though... :lol:

Waitrose. Head and shoulders above!

I am partial to Aldi's salted caramel crumble ones but I'm yet to see these on the middle aisle

You'd eat it every day, but you'd be dead!

Best before is fine.

It’s like f*cking Mumsnet on here these days.
