What food do you hate,that at one time you ate.

OP I think you've got my grans cook book. As she used to make us all those things when we were at her house. Remember having pobs regularly, she made it so the milk had a skin on it because apparently that made it taste better. Feel sick thinking about it

Just thought of something else which was regarded as a treat in those days (usually a Sunday) Tinned Mixed Fruit with Condensed Milk. I mean WTF was that all about.

Sunday dinner leftovers was all scraped into a big pan and left until 7o'clock Sunday night, Mam would then get out a whacking great frying pan and fry it all up including the gravy and sprouts, it stunk but tasted ok, followed by said tinned mix fruit with Carnation condensed milk, couldn't stomache it now though

Even now if there`s any spuds and carrots left over me and the missus will, like your Mam,will pan fry them until they`re nice and brown and crisp and dollop them on a butty,with a splash of vinegar.Superb snack.

Still love a bit of beef dripping. The missus thinks I'm mad but you can't beat it, bread, butter, beef dripping spread on it...

Nothing better than beef dripping on burnt toast with lots of salt yummmm

Growing up in the 1950`s I now gag when I think back to some of the things I used to eat as a kid ... but now ... urggghhhh.So have any of you tried the following :
POBS ; Bread broken up with lashings of sugar and then wonderfully coated by hot milk.
MINCE BEEF TEA : When Mum would cook the mince and then when it simmered she would take all that gungy fat crease off the top and you would drink it from a cup. (honestly).
SUGAR & OR APPLE BUTTIES : Bread and butter with a coating of sugar or sliced apple on bread and butter.
So any more horrible snacks/meals that you could gag to nowadays after eating them as a child ?

Pobs was a gentle food when you were getting over an illness.
Beef Tea I absolutely loved, as you say, drunk from a mug. My mum would slow cook it overnight. I wish I could still have it.
Didn't have the other one.
