A Christchurch man is in Hospital being treated for third-degree burns in his mouth after forgetting the classic Kiwi passage of “Always blow on the pie”.
Simon Jones an avid pie enthusiast suddenly became very peckish last night and decided to go and pick himself up a steak and cheese pie from his local petrol station.
In all his hunger he did not realise that the pie had been in the heater for hours and forgot it was thermonuclear, he took a bite and instantly regretted not blowing on it.
He immediately took himself to A&E to be treated and informed the nurses of what happened, they shook their heads and said.
“You must always blow on the pie, safer communities together”
