My Mum bought this round and stuck it in my freezer a few months back when she was visiting and I thought nothing of it untill I found it in the back of my freezer earlier today and thought score! Only now as its cooking away in my oven has it occurred to me that Somerfield hasn't existed in well over a decade.
How ill do you think I'll be if I eat it?

Probably as ill as I might have been if I’d dared to eat that Safeway pizza I found when I last defrosted the freezer.
And it was refrigerated first!
Nice knowing you.
I live in the Netherlands. In the British shop it’s still safeway branded products.
It’s good until the 21st, says so right there on the box 👍
It’s going to taste just “as bought” but it will be . . A bit dustier, even more grainier. You’re doing science, enjoy. I’m sure it will be great, a taste of the past when things were just . . A bit better

How well do you get on with your Mum? Is she in your will?
Somerfield ceased in 2011.
Well matured.
Did she get it from the local supermarchè? I hear the manager there is a real slasher… of prices!
Please tell me you took a bite?
Ha, Somerfield. My first ever job was there stacking the fruit and veg aisle. My line manager, Spencer, was a bellend. If you’re reading this, Spencer, I hope you’ve discovered breath mints or chewing gum.
Assuming this was bought between 2009 and 2011 when Somerfield was being bought up and subsequently rebranded…
IF it’s been constantly frozen that whole time, it’s technically safe to eat I think. It being pleasant to eat is a whole other question.
Sure it will be just fine
I hope you’ve got enough toilet roll nearby
You’d have been better off entering it in the Grand National.Â
I used to hate going there with my mum

When I was about 14, my friends and I lined up for an hour before the local Somerfield near us opened. Yes, we didn’t have anything better to do.
We were at the front, ready for the local rag to take a photo and give us some free food or something.
They decided the 5 year old kid behind us deserved it more, and give it to him instead.
Mortified.
I saw the image first and thought Somerfield had made a come back lol.
Took me far too long to realise the brand
That pie is older than half of TikToks user base
Isn’t this one of the ones with horse in it?
Think this might give you the trots.
Eat it with opened ketchup kept in the cupboard for nine weeks and they’ll cancel each other out.
Hope you’ve got plenty of bog roll. Good luck
If it’s been frozen the whole time, you’ll be fine.
If it hasn’t, you will smell it as it’s cooking and will not be able to get rid of the smell for days.
God speed, my friend. May the odds be ever in your favour.
The cow in that pie has been dead longer than Whitney Houston.
When does it go out of date?
21st Oct
Which year?
Every year.
I worked for Somerfield between the ages of 16 and 18. Ahh, memories…
Don’t eat that.
My local Somerfield had a banana display where you hit a big red button and music would play accompanied by very annoying lights and monkey noises. As a 12 year old, I found it exquisite.
