Mince Pie Fest 2022: Aldi Specially Selected

These mince pies are the second-best, according to this nonsense article at The Grauniad. We will see about that.

The pastry is a touch too firm, bordering on tough, and while it has a pleasant sweet taste, it is a bit sickly.

The filling alas, is weak, with none of the brandy, cider, and port promised on the box, and almost no flavour at all.

The Guardian is wrong. Again. 2.5 out of 5.
