Bread and dropping

[fortune]

Hey Kyska. You're still alive. After you ate her dinner the other night, I thought that you might have been spit roasted. You didn't come back to the thread to tell us of what happened.

Oh crikey! Of course.

 

It was eventless, I got asked if I ate it all, then I got sent out 10 miles to get a Chinese takeaway for her.

You got off light then. But don't forget, At the going down of the sun she will remember. Watch out for the slug in the salad.

I still have it on fresh crust bread or on a door step of toast and the jelly top pitch salt.if nobody nows what a door step is its a realy thick slice bread.

Could be worse...

 

 

 

 

 

 

It could be half a slug!

My old school used to sell doorstopper slices of bread and dripping for an old penny at break-time, and the best Yorkshire chippies fried their fish and chips in beef dripping (as did my mum)

 

Somehow I survived

I don't think it so much what you eat as what you do after you've eaten it. If you eat bread and dripping then sit on your back side chances are your going to get a bit porky, go and do a day of manual work as most of our fathers and grand fathers did your probably not going to put on much weight.

ps I remember having bread and dripping as a kid mmmm

Pork dripping, the muckier the better. Used to have it in Castle Market in Sheffield with my Dad whilst my mum went to marks and spencer to do her posh shop.

 

Thick white bread toast, dripping, salt and a mug of tea. Pure heaven.

 

I'll still do a fatty leg or shoulder of pork now for the crackling and dripping alone, although I eat the lot.

 

My old man grew up in an era when cod roe, liver, kidneys etc. were considered luxury.

 

But dripping was the best. It's still my most favourite food.

Cod Roe is the food of gods, i love the stuff. Smoked cod roe is very nice,for anyone in Yorkshire the Carricks fish stall that does the rounds of the markets sell it mmm.

Just done good full English breakfasts for some friends from Texas and they just could not get their heads around fried bread ..... mind they didn't leave any

 

Way back when, just after the war, a slice of bread and 'real' beef dripping ...... you know, where you could dig down into that brown jelly in the bottom of the basin, was dished out for a quick lunch time snack. Unless you produce your own these days, rare to find the real thing and rare to see a large 5lb joint of beef with a lump of fat on top roasted, so producing the real beef dripping. I was very lucky back then, in the 40s and early 50s being raised on a farm.
