Pie: 
Waitrose Shortcrust Mince Pies £2.09 for 12
Cost: £1.05
Score: 50.5%

This pie scored just 50.8%, when last year it scored 63%
So both Waitrose pies that we tested have scored less this year.... a worrying trend!

Generally we were not impressed by this pie!

It was really let down by the sugar coating, scoring the lowest of any pie so far this year!

Reviewers Comments and Guessed Origin
"A bit dry and bland. I managed to count a whole 6 grains of sugar, which stopped it getting 0. Nothing particularly great about it.Mr Kiplings very average pies?"
"Waitrose? A better than average pie, but let down by lack of sugar and a slightly bland filling"
"Oh dear this was a shocker of a pie, not nice at all. No idea where it could have come from. Hope not to see this one again!"
