The test was carried out in Cardiff earlier today and provided some interesting results, with so called budget brands coming out on top.
More expensive pies from the Tesco Finest and the Coop Irresistible rages, both of which boast brandy amongst their ingredients, were not so well received with one taster claiming, “It tastes too alcoholic, I don’t like it.”
The least favorite pie in the comprehensive survey was Mr. Kipling which received 0% of the votes.
