Lemon meringue pie is on special offer at Waitrose at the moment but something is not quite right.
You can get the big whole pie for £1.99 OR the new two-pack individual pies for £2.10.
What's the right thing to do in this situation? |

"Big pie, empty house, little spoon!
Now, I live alone, I have a range of spoons and even a spork. What pie do I have?"
The big one! A spork would be good for a lemon meringue pie! |

"It's still only available for breakfast by special order!
Though I recommend buying both packs and testing to see which tastes the best  "
I've just read about your offer, which is what reminded about the pie conundrum I was faced with this evening.
I'm not really bi but for your room, towels and breakfast offer I'm willing to try anything. I'll bring the LMP, it's only fair. |

"Whichever glows the most yellow in the dark…  "
Looking at the pictures, the little ones look like they might just glow a tad more than big one.
My real query is that the extra pie you get, for less than the two individual pies, is essentially free. So, does it make the extra calorie free too? |

Only if consumed with an appropriate desert wine  |

"The best thing to do is to eat pies in secret. Don't even tell yourself you are eating them. There are NO calories then.
Granny that's my philosophy! "
if I go to a buffet I never get a plate as I don't eat anything, I just pinch things as I walk by, if its not on a plate the calories don't count |

I get lots of lovely eye candy in my Waitrose: Dermot O'Leary and Mark Foster were regulars last year. I haven't seen them recently but I keep my eyes peeled. |

Leave them on the shelves, go home and make your own.  |

I wouldn't be able to make one for £1.99 so it's not the most economic solution. |

You bake though, so you might have the ingredients to hand and the oven on for other things. I get fed but not lemon, meringue or pie. |

"Buy the big one but have somebody feed it to you tied up and blindfolded, then you can claim you you didn't know how much you were eating and even so, you were made to do it.

I live alone. Who would feed it to me? |

Tut Tut
You know that the offer of bondage, you and LMP would cause traffic jams for miles around. Best warn the police before you do it |

How hard is your meringue? Actually, best not to answer. When you've sorted the pots and pans will be fine.  |

I simply happened to mentioned about LMP's to my next-door-neighbour as we put our bins out this morning .....
She graphically explained her aversion to lemon but mentioned the concept of an OMP sounded palatable....So basically I’d like to give her one….
I have £3.72p in loose change available and an old library ticket which has my picture on it to help me complete this quest.

It's a quest - that's an entirely more romantic notion. I offer you my favour and bless your noble adventure. You give her one. |

"There is only one thing to do in situations like this - put it back on the shelf and do running skids all the way to the meat pie aisle  "
As it was on offer the meat pies were on the shelf around the corner. No running involved. |

UPDATE:
I have now tried the individual LMPs as they are on offer.
I do not recommend these. The constituent parts ratios are wrong. Stick to the big one is it provides better value for money and satisfaction. |

There we have it in black and white that I can go and eat a big lemon meringue pie and not feel bad.
Also it could count as one of my 5 a day
Hurray for Lickety! Lickety for PM! |

I think even I would struggle eating 5 pies in a day.
5 jars of lemon curd I think I could just about manage. |

"Eurgh can't stand it
Save your money or buy cheesecake instead "
Oh surely not,,,,,,, cheesecake lacks the toxic zing of a well balanced LMP….
Its all about that tangy zest mixed with the wonderfully soothing meringue crust.....
But saying that,,,,,, I do like a drop of cheesecake too |

That is disappointing. We'll have to make it and see why it's not commercially available. Soxy, sign up for the next Great British Bake Off please. |
