N'Zogbia Tourte.

Looks wonderful, you hear great things about it but when you try it, it's deeply unsatisfying.

The Alex McLeish pie, at first it sticks in your craw, but then it goes down very easily.

Randy Lerner Pie. You are excited. You are expecting something wholesome, and satisfying. Something rewarding, and with a certain "je ne sais quoi".

But when you bite in there is nothing there. And you look closer, and the filling has gone missing.

Will there be VAT charged?

Had a long debate about this issue yesterday. Apparently for the pie to attract VAT it has to have greater than ambient heat.

So if it's *been* hot and cooled down, you can argue that they should knock the tax off.

David O Leary pie.
Even after all these years it still leaves a sour taste in the mouth.

The Stephen Warnock Pie.

You pass it from hand to hand turn 360 degrees and want to give it to your mate but for some unknown reason pass it to somebody you don't know.

The McLeish pasty.

Unappetizing to look at, dull taste and for some inexplicable reason makes you feel ill after you eat it.

And it's well past its sell-by date and stinking the place out, but for some reason the owner of the shop refuses to get rid of it.

The Big Fat Ron Pie.
Made with very tasty ingredients that other pie makers didn't rate and seasoned with a good dash of fun.
Trouble is you just know that the chairman of the pie company will fuck it up.

Pies at football grounds should be exempt from VAT then!

The Mcleish pie. Each ingredient comes in its own separate compartment so there's no interaction between the flavours. The seasoning contains a small amount of hallucinogenic so that shortly after finishing it you swear you've seen things which no-one else has.
