Default Mince Pies
Yay or Nay

I'm already eating my forth in two days, probably have another later. I like to put brandy butter on them.

Do you make your own or just have store bought?

My Mum makes great ones.
I can but prefer her to.

I'm not keen on the shop ones.

Definitely a yay from me however.

I can't vote on this poll as I'm in between. I like the thought of eating them more than the actual taste I think. They aren't that nice. However the novelty of them makes me want to eat them. But I dont overly enjoy them

Biggest fraud ever, horrible things.

The only true mince pie is in Scotland and you eat it with beans

This year I plan on being a Christmas pudding.

Small and round, drenched in alcohol and disliked by most people.
