Tastes of Childhood | Nostalgic Food Memories

I want my 70s childhood back😇😥

Decent clean living people back then, a much better time to grow up in.

Findus Crispy Pancakes was my true favourite and I use to buy 5 packs of them and I use to hide from my mum because she took one out of my plate and I knew that my mum loves it ever since. Rest In Peace Mum xxxx

Cooking instructions for crispy pancakes were....Cook at least 5 days before trying to eat, contents may be warmer than the earths core

Well. I'm 55yrs old and in my kitchen cupboard I have a packet butterscotch Angel Delight and a packet of Smash... Some things never leave us. Chocolate cake and pink custard was my forever favourite lol. ❤

When my mum used to make yeoman mash, I remember sometimes she never mixed it properly and I’d get a mouth full of powder! Usually served with crispy pancakes and cheap beans! I genuinely still eat most of these foods 😂

Now craving fishfingers and chips, washed down with an artic roll. Oh, and bring back Tizwas 👊🏻💥

I loved the 70s, it felt more secure and homely...to add, at the ripe age of 63, I brought some Cadbury Smash the other month, I still have a crisp sandwich...delightful 😊

Vesta Curries! My God.....a time where food actually had FLAVOUR!

56 and still, love a crisp sandwich and butterscotch angel delight thanks

The much missed Toast Toppers. Somebody (Heinz) is surely missing a trick there!

I'd like to see back Heinz Potato Salad, Heinz Curried Beans (with the sultanas), Vesta Beef Risotto and Pot Rice.

At Primary school the lunches were always superb, I really enjoyed them. For 45p/week, we got meat & 2 veg with gravy & dessert was mainly some kind of sponge & custard. My favourite was green (mint flavoured) custard with their chocolate sponge. I could never get enough of it & always got more until they ran out. It was popular. Their "Spotted Dick" was always really good too with loads of Raisins, this always came with a delicious vanilla custard. Tragedy struck when lunches went up to a whopping 50p/week.

Great video, born in '71 I still remember all these as a kid, strawberry Jan sandwiches always and never anything but cheese and onion crisp sandwiches. You're obviously the same as me with angel delight, butterscotch definitely my favourite. I ever had Smash, mother wouldn't allow it in the house(chemical puddings were fine she said) too old fashioned🤣 loved green mint custard and chocolate cake at school. Thank you for your video, great memories 👍🍻

Brilliant video, I loved having crisp sandwiches for Saturday dinner and Raspberry angel delight, one school puddings I hated was Tapioca as we called it Frog spawn, it was disgusting. Pink custard was my favourite.

Loved this video. So many memories. An item I used to like which you don't see anymore was Tip Top. Single cream in a can. Yum. One of my favourite desserts at home was slices of bananas in custard. Simple but so delicious.

Nostalgia is wonderful,I remember all you mentioned,I still get a Rupert Annual at Christmas and I’m 53,I love plasticine,crayola wax crayons etc,I just collect nostalgic favourites.

Love your nostalgic vids Stu. Can i share some school dinner hall thoughts of my own with you from my experience in the 1970s. No 1 - always wanting the dinner lady to give me the corner slice in the tray of the lemon curd as that piece was always bigger. No 2 - Dreading the thought of arriving for dinner late and finding out the only dessert left was Prunes, lots of prunes. No 3 - Making sure you was near the start of the dinner queue on a Friday as you would be assured of getting fish and chips, they never did enough and soon ran out about 10 minutes into lunch. No 4 - Thinking that midweek they had chips on only to find out they were chip shaped Parsnips ! No 5- The water jug on the table would invariably contain more than water, lots of food bits too. Quite disgusting, but did we moan, no, we just got on with it.

Does anyone else remember Kellogg's 'Rise and Shine' powdered orange juice? We always took some with us on camping holidays. There was also Cadburys tinned sponge puddings that you were supposed to boil in tbe tin to heat up but as a kid i was impatient and ate cold out of the tin with some custard.

Some amazing memories! I loved Findus Crispy Pancakes! Definitely the beef ones 😂 I loved school dinners and puddings!
