    One of my neighbors out here in the woods is retired from a career as a baker for Fred Meyers....I've picked up some good pies there over the years. He says it's not the place, it's the baker. Same bakery can have a great pie of a bad one....depends on the shift...never buy the ones on the floor though....they're old...get one from the bakers counter

    I know Bannings. They're midway between Fred Meyer and Buster's. They don't make mince meat pies.

    My wife suggested Shari's but I can't eat their food so I'm not going to waste money on a pie I probably can't eat.

    I don't see a link from you to Amazon anywhere in this thread. Am I blind? Well yes, I'm partially blind.

    Still working my way through this one from when you originally posted it.
    So far the leading candidates are Bernhard Bakery on East Broadway and Baker & Spice on Capitol Hwy.

    Shari's food does suck but their pies aren't too bad.

    Went to Helen Bernhard's Bakery on S.E. Broadway and got a decent mincemeat pie. Not the best I've ever had but the best I've had in say five or ten years. Can't remember where I got the best one from, dammit.

    Hey, @Lanny, my new Perfect Pie book has a mincemeat pie recipe. Too late for Thanksgiving, but mincemeat is fairly sturdy and keeps well, so if you want to order one from me on some future occasion, send a message and we'll see what we can arrange.

    Too late for Thanksgiving is the topic of the new James Bond movie, called "No Time to Pie"

    I had three pieces of mince meat pie. Each time my blood sugar went thru the roof. Had to quit eating it. Dammit
