A shit load of Aunt Bessie's chips and Yorkshire puddings. All to be drowned in Bisto best. Tidy. I've never had a Fray Bentos pie. I appreciate this is the 'Eatclean' equivalent of being Amish but the tin & the fact they're always £1 has never inspired confidence. They do cheese & onion ones now too!

Mr_Danger Posted January 10, 2020 Share Posted January 10, 2020 The host of a podcast I listen to recently summed Fray Bentos' up for anyone unfamiliar with them by saying he once found a bit of rib cage in one. That may have finished off the meat based ones for me. Good to know they're doing a cheese one though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members tiger_rick Posted January 10, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted January 10, 2020 I love a Fray Bentos. I've only ever had the Mince and Onion one which has so little meat in that it's practically Vegan but that layer of soft pastry in gravy between the "filling" and the outer layer of puff pasty is absolute gold. I'd buy that stuff by the lorry load. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m too scared to venture into Chorlton square in case the shutters are still down on unit 4. Alas, it isn't good news Even the sign has been taken down.

Paid Members Devon Malcolm Posted January 10, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted January 10, 2020 The one in Merseyway in Stockport is still very much open. We do seem to be able to preserve our prized #EATCLEAN outlets round here, what with our Crawshaws surviving their cull too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members Kaz Hayashi Posted January 17, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted January 17, 2020 Both @Onyx2 & I are going down the pizza route tonight. I ended up going to Morrison’s for a ‘make your own’. I didn’t know what to get so got loads. I’m meant to be sharing it... am I fuck. 14” for £5, that’s an amazing deal regardless of the product.

Paid Members Dead Mike Posted February 26, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted February 26, 2020 Morbid curiosity forced me to take the plunge. Did some chips in the air fryer too which were the high point of the meal. It was fine (I suppose) but there was fuck all steak or kidney, surprising for 99p I know!. I wouldn’t buy one again, it’s false economy imo as you can get a decent pie from Morissons for £1 & even better deals if you’re loitering around the bakery when it’s ‘whoops O’ clock’.

Paid Members tiger_rick Posted February 26, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted February 26, 2020 B&M have a Cheese & Onion Fray Bentos. Did not know that was a thing! As soon as the Man v Fat season is over, I'm having one. In a sandwich. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As soon as the Man v Fat season is over, I'm having one. In a sandwich. Imagine my dismay when my 50p tin opener fell apart trying to open mine. I tried the boy scout method but gave in when even the rat shit content would have been below ratio with the metal dust I'd ground in to it. Wasn't long after the PB had closed for good as well, tough times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members ElCece Posted February 26, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted February 26, 2020 Is the boy scout method when you smash a knife into with enough force to dislodge the lid of the tin? A done that few times as young man until I done it so hard with a tin of spaghetti hoops that I knocked the bottom out as well and it splattered across the kitchen floor.

Mr_Danger Posted February 26, 2020 Share Posted February 26, 2020 Fuck no! There's no way that shits going to fly with Mrs Danger around. You use the bottle opener end and continuously pierce your way around it hooking the rim for levarage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paid Members ElCece Posted February 26, 2020 Paid Members Share Posted February 26, 2020 That does sound more nuanced if fairness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
