Reply to comment by MrsPancakesSister in Deep Fried Apple Pie [I ATE] by Teelk3007

I didn't like 'em, too sweet (for me) even for maccas pies. I do wish they'd bring back the apple and custard ones though. mmmmm

To be fair those pies were rich. But I really enjoyed them.

Now see, I’ve never seen the apple and custard. That sounds so good. Didn’t they have a Cadbury creme egg pie recently, too? Or did I imagine that one?

I vaguely remember a creme egg something but I'm not sure if it was a pie, mcflurry, or maybe both. The apple and custard one was soooo good but I havent seen them do it for years. Like my other favourite promo items it seems to be a one-and-done, never to be seen again. Like the El Maco. Actually I think they've brought that back once in 20 years, maybe I'll get another one in my 60s lol (I'm in my 40s now).

I think you’re right, it may have been a McFlurry. The Smash a Pav billboards always amuse me when they have the pavlova McFlurries. You’d think I eat there often, but I usually just get chai lattes from Macca’s.

I remember seeing the El Maco advertisements, but I’ve never had one. It was definitely a while ago. I’ll keep my fingers crossed for you that bring it back sooner rather than later.
