I think most people have been put off this pie after eating or buying supermarkets own brand pork pies or cheap ones, most of these are nasty.

Today I am looking at two pork pies

Dickinsons and Morris of Melton Mowbray
Paper rapper, made in Leicester 47% pork.
price about £3

Pork Farms medium pork pie.
Plastic rapper, made in UK, 25% pork.
Price about £2

Who would have through what a different a pound would make?

They both look the same, well made nice colour and so on but Pork farms pork pie is poor suitor, its only has 25% pork in for a start, compare with the 47% of Dickinson and Morries.

The main problem with the Pork Farms pork pie is the salt content at 1.3g per 100g, after eating this pie you end up feeling firstly for hours afterwards.

Over all I thinks is a fools saving buying a this pie and trying to save a £1.

Melton Mowbray has long been famous for its pork pies and with good cause, it’s a far better pork pie.

For those of you who don’t eat pork pies or have never had one, you really should try a pork pie from this area of the UK with a pickle onion and a nice bit of red Leicester cheese.

Trust me you are missing out if you don’t.

I wouldn’t buy anything from Pork Farms, my brother used to work there, he told me of workers gobbing in the food :shock:

Go for the Melton Mowbray, atleast it’s original 8)

I had a great pork pie once, it actually had Branston inside the pie under the lid, how on earth did they manage such a clever job?!

I like a dollop of salad cream with my melton mowbray along with a cherry tom.

my mam loves her pork pies i aint so bothered aboot them, full of fat and diced pigs leftovers….

make a mean scotch egg… though…

I’ll give the pig pie a miss, but bring on the Red Leicester with raw onion and a Lass o’ Gowrie apple!
