OMG !!! that is so vile, please, you should have complained, i have heard since the british company took over, the quality is scandalous...Laura_Scotland wrote: »My OH is (or now was!) a big fan of Fray Bentos pies and I didn't mind them every now and again as they're quite a quick easy dinner with some vegetables and mash! Anyway, last night we had a steak and ale one and as he was eating his half, he came across a kind of small hollow hard tube with another little bit attached. He thought it's from the cow's throat perhaps.
I was about to phone them a few minutes ago to complain, so looked at the bottom of the packaging for the phone number when I noticed it says 'although every effort is made to remove all bones, some may remain.' So I'm assuming it must be a common issue? Didn't bother phoning after I read that as they probably won't do anything about it. I don't expect it to be the most top quality meat but you don't want bits like that in your food :eek: Horrible...0 -
Fray Bentos are garbage pies...
If I'm going to eat a meat pie then I'd rather have quality.
I have yet to try one seeing as i have never eaten meat from childhood till 5 yrs ago, i don't eat much, mostly chicken breast, but since imperial foods took over fray bentos i have heard so many complaints about quality, robbing greedy british..0 -

and Fray bentos pies still have hardly any meat in them. I have bought my last one...............This thread is over a year old!!"if the state cannot find within itself a place for those who peacefully refuse to worship at its temples, then it’s the state that’s become extreme".Revd Dr Giles Fraser on Radio 4 20170 -

If thats the case you'll be getting Mad Cows in your pie rather than arteries...Feudal Britain needs land reform. 70% of the land is "owned" by 1 % of the population and at least 50% is unregistered (inherited by landed gentry). Thats why your slave box costs so much..0 -
We live in the country.
My kids would eat Nemo if you gave them a fire and a stick.
So would my two if you gave them a gas hob or a microwave. (they're resolutely city kids, especially the second one).I could dream to wide extremes, I could do or die: I could yawn and be withdrawn and watch the world go by.Yup you are officially Rock n Roll

Ooops
I got my younger son on to the Fray Bentos Pies cos I love the gravy and pastry.
He would eat one on his own if I wasn't about
Ok we al know they don't have a great meat content but some of us prefer to ignore that when the mash and beans taste great too.
As we all know a lot of stuff goes into food that 60 years ago your parents or grandparents were eating. Just because it's not top grade it doesn't mean it's bad for you and I would hazard a guess - wont kill you.0 -
Thats what you need folks - a whole chicken in a can.Dont rock the boat
Dont rock the boat ,baby0
