Yeah....we've kinda come to an agreement that they should be an all year round thing and stripped of all stupid Christmassy nonsense.

NO. You have to choose..... - All year round mince pies with plain tops - Xmas only mince pies with snowflake, star or pine tree shape toppings YOU CANNOT HAVE BOTH!

Whatever floats your three ships that came sailing in, on Christmas day in the morning.

Correct - you can buy mince pies throughout the year without needing to indulge in ridiculous unseasonal promo. I believe a certain Mr Kipling bloke bakes exceedingly below par mince pies all year round…🤷🏻♀️

It may seem harsh, but these shops need to learn the lesson of this crass commercialism out of season…

Burnt plastic on the Christmas pud instead of gently flaming brandy is unorthodox....but entirely justified in September!

I'm already on my second box of their iced mince pies. I could watch those buggers all year round tbh.

I'm all for getting back to their middle eastern origins. Spiced fruit/meat pies....lemon tahini, yoghurt, herbs. Of course we can do some non-meat ones too.

I think their strategy is getting people to buy early to ‘put away’ then they eat them so need to buy more, on a loop til 24.12.25.
