I think it has a certain naffness about it. I’m not so fussed about it as to add it to the shopping list.
we did this on the hottest days only, ours were similar but no sausage rolls or pork pies, usually roast chicken and ham (like sandwich ham) instead
You’re missing out.
ketchup for me Clive but i might have to try this
when i’m hungry at home i often just have a salad cream sandwich. delish
it’s a revelation. Seriously !
Plenty of appreciation for salad cream in this thread…
Yes, I’m gauging the reaction on here - seems like there’s a lot of love for salad cream. My take? It’ll always evoke memories of childhood and I guess it’s probably enjoyable albeit in a sickly, synthetic way. I don’t generally use dressing on salad save for a bit of olive oil and balsamic (or maybe a little lemon, seasoning and sumac). Would probably have a squirt of it if it was on the table at my dad’s house, but wouldn’t go out of the way to buy it.
Probably should have left Mrs CCB out of it as she’d not stand in the way of me and any food choice.
We used to have ‘Holiday Tea’ which was a salad (lettuce, tomato, cucumber, pepper) with grated cheese, ham, bolied eggs, cold baked beans and baguette. Still have it sometimes tbf
Invariably the chicken would be very soggy but the sheer novelty of an edible science project meant you’d see it through
Sounds great bar that bizarre inclusion of cold baked beans
Cold beans and grated cheese. Yum
@laelfy, probably because we had a tin to use on a camping holiday, so they were just whacked on the plate. I quite like cold beans though, so
Angel Delight
Not weird, not bad. Want some now.
Couple of spoonfuls of leftover cold beans from the fridge: nothing wrong with that.
Deliberately serving up cold beans: not so sure.
A plate of mashed potatoes and nothing else - by request
Yeah I’d go a bowl of butterscotch right now too
we used to have stir fry occasionally but for some reason my mam and dad (my dad actually, for some reason he always made stir fry and my mam cooked all the rest of the time) would get a tin of ham (own brand spam i guess) and chop it up into little cubes and would put that in the stir fry. never had tinned ham since being a kid. since we moved house when i was 12 actually. something i associate v strongly with the house i lived in til i was 12. weird
Have this for dinner more often than I care to mention. I love mash
As a youngster did you do the same as me and use your fork to make it look like a freshly ploughed field?.. just me then
we used to have bananas chopped up in a little stainless steel bowl with angel delight on, which is basically the same thing
