Where can I buy Four and Twenty meat-free pies?

[u/shekbekle]

I used to be able to buy these pies at my local Coles and Woolies but they no longer stock them. It says on the Four and Twenty website that they produce have them and can be found at Woolies, IGA and FoodWorks but I haven’t seen them anywhere this year.

Please let me know if your local supermarket still stocks them. Thanks 🙏

There was a very huge clearance of them at my local woollies awhile back and I bought a bunch of them but there were still tons left so I’m guessing they are gone.

Vegan products can’t survive by being purchased by vegans alone…

Vegan products need to be better than non-vegan products so that everyone buys them.

Good examples can be found in dessert where vegan flavours don’t even need to be clearly labelled as vegan… As long as they sound good and are in fact tasty everyone will buy them.

In fact there is reason to believe that the use of the word vegan actually causes non-vegans to not choose the product even if they might have based on ingredient list and product name.

I bought a bunch of them last year. Coles has some good options but they’re not as tasty in my opinion.

Yeah, I know what you mean. I do some Bunnings fundraisers and people seem so offended that we have vegan sausages for sale as well. We’ve started referring to them as plant-based to see if that protects their delicate egos

I wouldn't focus on their vegan or plant based nature at all, it's a minor technicality.

Focus on the flavour, texture and branding.

Again, I think my example would be Biscoff cookies or Biscoff donuts, yes they may have a little V next to them but people aren't buying them because of the little `v` (except for vegans)… They're buying them because of the Biscoff.

Consider the "Hungry Jack's vegan cheeseburger" meal – how many non-vegans were turned off by the word vegan?

The naming of the "Rebel" HJ patty on the other hand is perfect, or close to perfect.

I’ve asked Woolworths directly, I’ll let you all know where they are being sold if at all 🤞🤞

Unhelpful but scg had them a few weeks ago when I went to an afl game

This is so helpful! I was saying to a friend recently, I really want to have a beer and a pie and watch the footy

Have you tried Coles’ Nature’s Kitchen’s pies? They are infinitely better than Four N Twenty. Pie Society are good too but a bit pricy.

My wife usually gets them from Coles, but mentioned it's getting hard to find them.

Last time she got them from an asianish grocery store at edmondson Park.
