Discussion
You need to try a Dabbers Pie then - pork pie with pickle and Cheshire cheese in the middle.

I tried a pork pie with something in it, from a supermarket, either Tesco or Waitrose, can't say which. It had some sort of pickle in it.
It was nasty.
It would have to go into my box marked 'food mucked about with, for the sake of being mucked about with'
Almost as if someone, somewhere along the line had said, Those pork pies, what's their USP, we need to make them stand out, go away and come up with something that'll make them sell. We need to make money!
I'm thinking the cheese ones would go in the same box.
I'd be happy to try one though, I might be surprised.

i cant stand pickle, once made the mistake a few years ago as a youth of picking up a nice looking ham finger sandwich at cricket tea and biting into it to discover it had pickle in it i spat it out on the plate and gagged, much to the amusement of my colleagues. never risked a sandwich at cricket tea again!
M&S do pickle ones too, also gala pie...no thanks!
the cheese ones are amazing though, M&S also do chorizo one and bbq seasoned one amongst other variants. (these are the mini ones) the chorizo is meh the bbq ones i havent tried yet. I think in the past bacon ones and apple have been ok.
but then i eat mine warm...that way botulism lies but 40 seconds in microwave makes them so much nicer...sacrilege maybe but i don't really like them cold. The reason i do this is a i never used to like them until i was in melton mowbray once and went into some famous pie shop (dickinson and morris i think) and they were just out the oven so i had one there and it made me realize how nice warm they were.
also i only eat them from waitrose or M&S...i just dont trust the quality of the meat in others , although its all probably from the same place, and ive had chewy bits in M&S/Waitrose too. Even the D&M ones you can buy in some supermarkets ive found dubious (despite my previous devouring of them in there shop)

Just buy a normal pork pie and then cheese etc with it. You get twice as much for half the price.
I can tell you lot don't come from Melton Mowbrey / Yorskshire.
I went to Harrods and got a pork pie with caviar topping ... you can get twice as much making that at home.
Squeezing your own pet sturgeon around the nether reasons. And your own pig.
Not at the same time of course.

I have one of these for this evening. Best pies I have tasted for a long time
