Pukka Pies - Interpreting the language of love through pastry based baked goods.
My local chip shop has recently changed management. I used to be very friendly with the people that used to run the place, and I have a lot of childhood memories playing the old arcade cabinet that was there through the 80's to the mid 1990's. But times change.
So these new owners. A bit weird, they are. In fact, the bloke behind the counter could almost be described as "socially awkward", which is a trait that could be considered quite a disadvantage when serving people. I mean, I fully admit I have a shitload of flaws when it comes to matters of communicating with people face to face, and that's why I'd NEVER consider working in retail, but this guy... Takes the cake. Or Pie.
Which leads me to the main subject of this post. Pies!
One of the things this new ownership have done is introduce a whole shitload of the tackiest point of sale crap I've ever seen, for "Pukka Pies". I'm really not sure how POS material is supposed to work in a fast food environment, and I don't think Pukka Pies do either. It's like someone told them the old adage, "sex sells", and they kind of ran with it. Where? Well, lets have a look.

Pukka pies are lush though. sainsbury's sell them now so you don't even have to risk getting food poisoning by buying them from chippies.
If pies be the food of love, why is that woman in the last pic about to EAT HIS HEART!
