Pastry: both don't do a full cover. M&S pastry felt more crumbly and tasty, but also sometimes overwhelmed the mincemeat. Mozzas win. Mincemeat: both absolutely fine. A tie. Eating: Mozzas fell apart way too quickly, leaving me with mincemeat fingers and a messy plate. M&S held it together just long enough to be stuffed in my face. M&S win. Cost: M&S ones were £3.50, which is a bit mental. Housemate bought the Morrisons ones, so they're free. Mozzas win Overall: I thought there'd be a clear winner, but they were both so nice I want to go back for seconds. But that will involve a trip to Morrisons. Apologies that this isn't more informative. Mince Pies are delicious

What cheese would you recommend for a cheese-beginner (ie no blue cheese!) to pair with a mince pie or 3? Wensleydale: crumbly and full flavoured. Also, try Caerphilly or Cheshire. I enjoy Rosary goat's cheese: fresh, soft and creamy, with a full flavour.
