I love mince pies, I prefer normal mince pies whereas my mam buys the ones with icing on the top... Even worse!
I think I might limit myself to Christmas day for a mince pie but how can I resist!!!

If I workout and burn enough calories for it can I eat it or is that defeating the object???

    If it fits into your calories, you can enjoy the odd mince pie.

    If you love it and you plan your exercise and food to fit it in, why not have a slice at Christmas?

    I love mince pies too, but the pastry is where the cals are so just bin the top of the pie? I've never tried a mince pie with icing on the pastry top. x

    Also its not a crime to treat yourself once in a while, dont make it a guilty pleasure just make it a pleasure :-)

    If it fits into your calories, go for it! I save enough room for dessert everyday :)

    I say EAT the mince! It's delicious!

    I am intrigued by the mention of icing. This is new to me. Must google....

    I've purposefully been avoiding the puff pastry mince pies, they are just so good
