The best faggots come from butchers' shops.
Incidentally, I had battered white pudding from the chip shop - I provided the white pudding, they provided the chips and mushy peas. And it was awesome. |
That sounds lush, even tho I've never seen white pudding. locally anyway. Get the yummy black one, might have to have a gander round the butchers tomorrow. |

White pudding pisses right over black pudding. Troof. |

Also Froo-froo yoghurts. Anyone remember those? No-one I know seems to. They were a ring of pink yoghurt (raspberry flavour I think) with a toy in the middle, in it's own little pot. |
I remember thes, you got a family of spacemen (and women) in them that sort of looked like the Olimar off Pikmin

You live in Staffordshire, right? Do you know any Scottish or Irish butchers? It's pretty difficult for me to get up here, actually. Do you have a fairly big Morrisons near you? Go there - you probably will find some. |

Come to Lancashire and tell them this. I'll pay your airfare and put you up. 
Also, you get it in an Irish breakfast but don't in an Ulster fry. This is a serious failing in the culture of Ulster that must be corrected forthwith. |

Smash?! Jesus Christ man, you should be burnt at the stake for such primitive horribleness!
Last time I had anything like that, I thought I'd never survive the experience. The colour of it was like puke.
Give me the lovely rolling beauty of gammon and champ anyday in a nice pub in County Down, with a nice litre or two of Armagh cider. |

I can't believe I forgot...
My mothers soup - peas pudding, grated carrot, grated turnip, potatoes, leeks, bacon and lamb. We were only allowed it when leeks were in season and it'd take three days to make but it'd last for days and was super yummy, before I was able to handle solid foods I lived off this stuff and really miss it now but I don't have the patience to spend that long making a soup....plus I've lost the recipe and would rather not have to talk to my mother to get it again. Along those lines also 'surprise cake' - chocolate cake made from mashed potato and all bran, also a big nostalgic food for me.
Onken Frufoo's;
Strawberry fromage frais that came with an alien toy, also including chocolates with strawberry fromage frais centre - we didn't do yoghurt in our house, only ever fromage frais...now it's really hard to find fromage frais in supermarkets.

Whenever I see that brand name, I always think of the commuter village to Douglas on the Isle of Man: Onchan.
Sorry, that wasn't very helpful, was it? |

Well it's better than what I was expecting; an obligatory joke about the name frufoo...
