Damnation, my dreams are shattered!! So what is a Scotch pie then, haggis in Pastry?

I searched on Wikipedia and it just says that it's a pie with minced mutton or other meat?!? What's special about that?

And when sold in chip shops it's deep fried!!!!!!!!!!? Along with the Mars Bars for desert I suppose!

Steady on there, your exclamation marks are out of control. I've never eaten a Scotch pie but the look lie a normal pie/pork pie cross

You can make Scotch eggs quite easily if you want to fulfil your culinary lust

Got some Scotch Pies and Wiltshire Back Bacon today.
Pie was good (no I did not deep fry it!!!) and hubby enjoyed the bacon, not quite the large rashers we are used to but it was good.

The frozen yorkshire puds from Superstore are meant to be good, I haven't tried them yet.

I haven't bought ready made yorkshires for years, it's so easy to make them and they taste so much better

You can thank me for the bacon if you got it from Red Deer - I sent an email complaining about them discontinuing the bacon last week, the reply I got said that the manager was going to order for this weekend

Hi Piff Poff
I did get it from Red Deer. Thanks sent to you.
I went in the other day and they told me it was on order and would have it in 2 - 3 days. They were true to their word

Have got a few home comforts from Superstore.

If so that's the quick route.

I used the website contact method and it took them ten days to get back to me.

No, I emailed the website 'contact us', it took about a week I suppose (including a weekend). This was my response, I'm just impressed that not only did they listen but they did something about it too

Thank you for taking the time to write to us.

I’m so happy to tell you that I have been in touch with Harold, the Meat Manager, at your Red Deer Superstore, who has placed an order for the PC Beacon Rashers. We expect this product will be available again in your store by the end of the week!

Please do not hesitate to contact me again if I can be of further assistance.

Sincerely,

Julie Dunham

Sr. Coordinator, Communications I LCL Customer Relations
