Old Pies!

Thread Starter: cvgale    Started: Thu 08 Sep 2005    Replies: 7

A man who I work with found an old pie in the works pantry, the pie was 20 years out of date and a well known make that you bake in the tin... you know the one I mean. He ended up cooking the pie and it tasted really great... apparently! So he phoned the company to let them know that their 20 year out of date pie was still as amazing as if it were fresh. The company sent him a whole crate full of pies.

I thought about doing this with some big fat chocolate cheesecakes, do you think I'll get away with it Smile

It's true, I've just asked him and a couple of his colleagues, steak and kidney it was. Then when the pie eater had gone, his colleagues said he'll eat anything that's lying around.

He didn't tell me himself, it's just a well known fact that he did it. He has worked here for 50 years and the building is 200 years old so it wouldn't surprise me if there was a 20 year old pie lying around. Next time I see him I'll ask him about it... I wonder what flavour it was.
