(about things we rarely had but longed for) I bought some arctic roll.

Did the sponge always taste like frozen carpet? I could have sworn it used to be nice.

Where do they still sell it? I have been looking for it as I know ds will love it.

It did always taste like frozen carpet I'm afraid, I just don't think we were quite so fussy back then!

Asda.

Really? Ah well....memory playing tricks on me again. It was such a treat to get anything shop-bought.

yes and vimto always tasted like scented harpic!!!

Shake some icing sugar over it before eating.
That makes everything taste better!

It used to be so exotic - don't you still wonder how it was made?

Supermousse-frozen mousses. We craved them as children.
Frozen findus beefburgers.
Cresta
That chinese meal with crispy bits on top.
The 1970's were fab
Oh ice lollies- Dracula ones that were black with red jelly inside. Jungle ? ones that were toffee.
