Squeamish5 309 Posted March 15, 2018 Report Share Posted March 15, 2018 On a slight tangent, but re ‘the old days’ and cheaper cuts, I remember getting home from school one day and seeing in the fridge what I thought was a piece of some sort of chilled ice-cream bombe thing, like I’d seen at my friends house. (They had all sorts of wonderful things made by Birdseye, AND a Soda Stream). No.... it was a wedge of cows udder. (I feel like we’ve had pork chops with kidney in fairly recently? Is this not a thing anymore and I’m misremembering?) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I might have been in a room with 30 mates but I thought I'd made it in life. Still its not like today where one of my daughters regularly cooks up to 4 different tea's for the kids. I keep telling them, let me have the little darlings for a week or two and they'll go back good grubbers LOL 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
