What's been your favourite food/drink since childhood?

[gnyaff]

My favourites were fruit pudding, followed by tatties and mice with Bisto gravy. Even better if you could get them both on the same plate. In the sweet department Smarties were the best, we now have M & Ms over here instead which I ocassionaly eat by the bagful when the Wee Wummin isn't looking.

I would have to say cheese - from the simple Primula cheese spread on oor breakfast rolls in Saltcoats as a wee boy to a good bitey vintage Mersey today. No connoisseur of fancy cheeses though. You can keep the smelly, mouldy ones! Wee Ali

Sweeties, any colour, any sort. I think it stems from never having had enough money to buy enough now I can, I do.
