My childhood was in the 50s and early 60s so there was very little if any ready meal type foods, everything was home cooked by my mam. Home made chips fried in lard in a chip pan, home made pies etc.

Chicken was a luxury which we had on Christmas Day.

Neck of mutton stew was a staple cheap meal but smelt foul when cooking. On Sunday we had a roast, normally lamb the cheap shoulder blade end roasted with mint sauce, mash and cabbage. Dad would get up early to put a rice pudding in the oven which was slow cooked and had a lovely brown skin on the top.

was it findus who were using horse meat for their microwavable lasagnes almost 10 years ago? that would be grim for some younger people to look back on.

my mum has always made food from ingredients because she does not like instant food. even fish fingers tended to be home made, but at times birds eye might be something i would see from time to time. its why i have a fondness for cooking at home, although i am no chef. i do like to make some of her more basic recipes. my childhood favourite was warm oats for breakfast and meat dinners.

The meat in some beef lasagne products recalled by Findus earlier this week was 100% horsemeat, the Food Standards Agency says.
