On Sunday night, in North Yorkshire, England, thieves broke into a storage unit and drove off with a refrigerated van, filled with 2,500 pies. Now, the chef who made those pies is appealing to the thieves to summon some holiday spirit and donate them to a local community center, rather than having the food go to waste.
Chef Tommy Banks says he realizes he won’t see his van again—and doesn’t think the thieves were looking to make off with nearly one ton of pies. And since each box holding the pie has his name written on it, he notes it’s not likely they can profit off of them.
