my friend was talking tody about how she'd been looking for blancmange mix, which prompted a whole convo about "retro" food - food that you haven't eaten for aaaaages.
I'll add: evaporated milk; tinned steri-cream
do you have any foods you havent had for a long time?

Angel Delight
Arctic Roll
I saw Angel Delight the other day, it will be forty years sine I ate it last. Didn't buy it but might do next time .....Dream Topping too.
I could happily have lived on this as a kid!

I don't miss veg being cooked for hours with a massive dose of bicarb.
Angel Delight and those little tinned orange segments and jelly!
Evaporated milk, how come when you open the tin it's still in there!!
Actually we still have it every 3 or 4 weeks.
Note to self. Chris likes a good whip.
Everything cooked in lard
Tinned peaches in heavy syrup.
Vesta curries.
Bread and Dripping

Corona

Spangles

A nice heaping tablespoon of Virol.
Cod liver oil:-(
-- answer removed --
gypsy tart - and no thats not an insult
Findus Crispy Pancakes
Things I used to be given a lot that I haven't had for years - Instant Whip, Crispy Cod Fries, Vesta meals, Duo-Can meals, Birds Eye frozen chocolate and cream sponge, McVities chocolate cup cakes, Birds Eye frozen Florida orange juice (that was a real luxury)
Real fish and chips cooked in real lard; plonked into real newspapers; and saturated with malt vinegar and tons of salt.
Still eat Artic Roll and peaches and cheap icecream as for some reason they are the only puds my stomach can take these days.
