Mint tea on toast makes the toast soggy, surely?

Some people still eat lard but it isn't as common as it used to be.Many people have bread rolls and cheese or salami though...

Many, many years ago and this is true,when I was about 5 or 6, my mother used to give me raw sausage wrapped up in newspaper to eat.

I can still taste it now.

(The newspaper was just the wrapping, I didn't eat that!)

Granary toast, crunchy peanut butter, sliced bananas and freshly-ground black pepper. Delicious, but about a week's allowance of saturated fats in a single serving and so a very rare treat.

My son has eaten marmite and sugar sarnies. He thinks I'm weird when I have ginger nuts with a slab of cheddar.

Apple, sultanas and coconut in a curry.
Sorry, that was normal in the 1970s.

We had curry for Christmas Day dinner this year.
Thrown in were left over roast potatoes from my partners daughters Christmas roast

In Edinburgh right now, I was reminded on arrival of the meat pies I used to buy all over Scotland. It was not until I worked in Aberdeen and a colleague told me what I had never realised. You are supposed to cook them before eating. Never liked them that way.

Some people have pulled there noses when I've put port in my Guinness, lovely stuff.

This is (was in my bar-keeping days anyway) known as Purple Velvet

Perfectly reasonable

To be fair; that's what I thought digestive biscuits were for!

I like to eat Snickers bars and ready salted crisps together

My mum used to do that a couple of times a year, all the curry powder did was send the gravy a bit yellow.

Add marmite to the toast and you have perfection.

Curry sauce on pasta, a great mix of two cultures but the taste works well.

Curry ketchup on sausage chunks with a sprinkle of curry powder on it, but then we're getting very mainstream for Europe but unfamiliar in the UK.
