[Jon1964]

Aldi have the mini Stollen and Stollen Bites

Have you had the ones from Aldi the rum soaked ones, asking for a friend

Like giving a donkey strawberries... I've tried pies from Mark's, Asda, Morrison, Tesco and a couple of garden centres that do food..and a local bakery...best from the bakery with thick brandy butter piped onto the top! Marks best shop bought..I will also make some!
I've probably had more than a few boxes...

Are you a bit of a pie chap Clint

No Jon but I have had the mini stollen and bites and both are nice infact I think they did the mini stollen with apple in it as well as the standard mini stollen last year

None and I have no intention of that number rising above 0.

I'm saving as many calories as possible for my beers

"How many mince pies and Christmas puddings have you eaten so far this December"?

None. It's not Christmas yet. I will start on Christmas Day, and probably have Christmas Pudding and mince pies on that day, and for each day of Christmas (the pies, anyway, Christmas Pudding will run out after a couple of days or three).

I've also bought various beer that I don't normally have, but I'll probably start that early: Christmas Eve.

None so far, these are the kind of thing that I have either at work or when visiting people, or pick up on a whim in the supermarket.

Since I have a)not being visiting people for obv reasons and b) doing all my grocery shopping online I have yet to partake.

I guess this could be the start of a youtube channel. Mince pie meets man. 13123189238172638 Mince pies on the table from variant sources, home made, commercial etc. It would still mean that Mince pie is DQQMED lol!

I pity your poor wife and how many mince pies she will have to make to keep you at your sincerest to your dearest. Perhaps you should give her a hand xD
