# Slightly amended pearoast...

# Oooof.
Your username has brought to mind a recent pub conversation, about the feasibility of scoffing a whole Fray Bentos at a sitting. Back in my povvy Fray Bentos-eating days, it was comething of a challenge to get thought a full one, but the people I was chatting with seem to think it fairly straightforward.

Have they downsized recently, or have I always been a bit of a lightweight when it comes to Fray Bentos?

# I hold no answers.
Having been a bit of a porker a few years ago, the 'pie' brand soundalike of my surname was a tap-in for anyone thinking up a nickname. Thankfully, I got in there first and Fray Brentos was born. I ain't never not eaten none of their pies although i let one go rusty in my cupboard once before throwing it in the bin.

You're supposed to put it face-down on a plate and the pot lifts off as it cooks. It didn't. Had to scoop it out. OK in a mushy pie-ey sort of a way. But I'm not sure I'll ever get round to having the other one anytime soon...
