i had one of these pies a number of years ago and the following day had a little excess gas if you know what i mean. Anyway after a sly and controlled release my work mate at the time said "you had a frey bentos pie for your tea last night diddn't you". I havn't had one since. And I work outside.

If you find any meat in these please return to manufacturer for a full refund!

​Nettos closed operations in the UK saying that the country wasn't ready for discount retail outlets. Of course it had nothing to do with the fact all the stores I went to were shyte tips.
They are now under the wing of Sainsbugs and tbh they are not really a discount store anymore most of the prices are horrifically expensive in comparison to the likes of Lidl & Aldi.

I thought it was the former dictator from cuba

Still £0.49 too much!

Back of the net'o

Never knew that fray bentos is actually a town in uruguay ...factomundo

Is it nettos or dose it belong to ASDA cos ASDA took over our nettos and closed it down in Keighley lots of people were very upset about it we loved to shop at netto but now we go to Aldi and lidl it's cheaper

If you find any meat in these please return to manufacturer for a full refund!

But it's still a pretty unpleasant shop - despite the changes. As bad as it ever was, but more expensive. Not a patch on Aldi or Lidl.

Difficult to see why anyone would go there - unless of course it's just for cheapo pies like this.

more meat content in a hot dog

Aaah a happy reminder of my uni days...

Fray Bentos faithful and true.......................steak and kidney pie was and is my Favourite, although many years ago I sliced my hand open trying to get the bloody lid off.

:laughing:

Surprisingly hard to find minced beef pies. Not many options out in UK it seems.

I like these pies ..remind me of my childhood. Thanks op

Bought one once and it actually had 1 piece of meat in it, never again total rubbish.

Ahh remember that store well.Since it's changed to Asda it's booming :smiley:

Most of the time Poundland have the Fray Bentos pie range including Chicken (Yech) for the obvious price of a Quid,
all the Supermarkets vary the price from £1 up to £2.20, there is usually one of them selling them for a Quid..

pastry in a can is just so wrong, and then there's the gagging reflex when you open one and you get a whiff of dog food

Fresh ones. Or at least not in cans. Think of the three, I've only seen from Morrisons.

Wow. Sainsburys pies are small.

acquired taste I know but with chips and peas mmmmm
I love spam also so that says it all lol :-)

Not even good enough for dogs & cats.
