I ate a tinned pie and loved every minute of it

[JanettheSaxon]

Earlier today I did a bad thing.

I usually eat very sensibly, limit processed food, healthy, balanced. But I’ve had a bad week. And I saw it - a Fray Bentos tinned pie.

My gran used to give us them as kids and I was overcome with a wave of nostalgia.

I bought it. I cooked it. I ate it.

And yes, I enjoyed it.

I might have a Pot Noodle next week.

AIBU?

Ambrosia custard with tinned peaches is my “recovering from being ill and fancy a little something light but not hard to chew or swallow with a sore throat still” meal. It really hits the spot after a yukky cold.

Cor, tinned peaches. I might go for tinned mandarins though

Tinned peaches with vanilla ice cream. Food of the gods.

I usually keep a couple of those in for the occasional time when I really just CBA to cook. One each for me and dh, with frozen peas.

Which reminds me, none in the cupboard at the moment….

A Vesta paella was my treat for myself as a student, when marginally less skint than usual. This was a very very long time ago though.
