Crap foods from your childhood you still eat now.

[Meringueatan]

After food shopping and a tough day at work, I couldn't be arsed to cook myself anything. DH had already fed himself and DC, and I didn't want what they were having.

So I've made myself a bowl of left over rice, lots of sugar and milk, heated it the microwave while I unpacked the shopping. Used to love this from my childhood, mock rice pudding. Yum!

Tinned ravioli. Got to be Heinz though, tried Aldi's own and it didn't compare.

marmite and crisp sandwiches.

Angel delight, banana sandwiches

Another for tinned ravioli-had some today 😂

Bovril on toast

I've not had tinned ravioli in years. My favourite one is the cheese Tesco own. Might have to go buy some to see if it's still as I remember.

Mashed banana on toast, pek meat on toast, sandwich paste on toast, anything on toast really...

I mean, I was going to say sausages & ketchup but...

Wouldn't you have tinned rice pudding? Sometimes I have that as a meal when I can't be bothered. Or a thick layer of Heinz sandwich spread on white bread.

Corned beef and sandwich spread sandwiches on cheapest white bread possible. My grandma used to make them for me after I’d promised not to tell mum as she was a whole grain, vegetarian no tinned stuff back in the 90’s.

She now happily feeds Dd loads of stuff out of tins which I do like to rib her about.

Mini Kievs

Baked beans with those little sausages of unknown provenance mixed in.

Meat paste sandwiches on cheap white bread. Grim but satisfying.

Butterscotch Angel Delight with sprinkles.

Heinz beans and sausages.

Pasta bake with frankfurters and a crushed up bag of mini cheddar on top, bovril on white toast, and corned beef and pickle sandwiches

Strawberry angel delight!

I made spam fritters a couple of weeks back. probably hadn't eaten one for more than 50 years. Surprisingly nice!

It was Lidl own-brand spam-alike - I'd bought it early in Covid when stocking the store cupboard with all sorts of odd things seemed prudent.

Princes Chicken & Ham paste on buttered white toast and instant noodles (not at the same time).

I dearly wish they still made toast toppers - those were gourmet stuff.

No, I dislike tinned rice pudding.

Egg in a cup, mashed with butter, with soldiers.

I miss the cheese and ham one.

Toast Toppers!! I actually sent a very distressed email to them when Heinz stopped making them and they sent me out a box of 6 of what I assume was the last bits they had.

Better than winning the lottery that was!

@Meringueatan that was my favourite too.
