Re: Hollands Pies 160th Anniversary Exhibition

I haven't eaten a Hollands pie for a long time -
ever since I found a 'tube' in one.
It was the size of penne pasta - must have been a part of a cow's bronchial system.

Waste not, want not.

Could someone please start a 'we hate hollands pies' thread, so this one can return to the original topic.

Seems like I've managed to create a lot more traffic to the Heritage and History section tbh. Not that it was my intention of course.

Holland's have a first class marketing team.

They need them.

I feel sorry for the people of the Netherlands.

Some will think they must be partly to blame.

Re: Hollands Pies 160th Anniversary Exhibition

Just had a thought,they make 12 pies/pudding/pastys plus a sausage roll, wont need much room.they can have the exhibition in the Museum Toilets.

I started a thread. People went off topic in an attempt to be humorous/whimsical. I responded in kind. I find it quite funny how people are making this into a melodrama. I'm going to start reading this with popcorn (not pies).
