Tommy Banks, a Michelin-starred chef, pleads with van thieves to return 2,500 food-filled pies worth $32,000, intended for the York Christmas Market, to help the needy. Following the theft, which is part of a troubling trend in food-related crimes, North Yorkshire Police have located the stolen van, yet it's unclear if the pies remain safe. Banks expresses concern over the perishable goods and hopes the thieves will embrace the holiday spirit by donating the food rather than letting it go to waste.
