Does anyone remember a cheese in a jar that was available in the 1970s? I can't remember what it was called, but I used to love the stuff. It was quite orange. I hate to think what was actually in it!

Mmm... guilty secrets... spoonfuls standing at the fridge! (Was still around in the 80s-90s)

Was it Sun-Pat Cheddar spread or something? I want to see a picture of the jar!

We used to have a family competition to invent the most disgusting-sounding ice creams, our 'best' was 'Prune and Weasel' until an American friend suggested 'Liver Ripple' which I bet you can actually get somewhere or other ! yeuch.......

Enough cholesterol to make an athlete fails a drugs test I'm sure. if they were still alive.

Deep fried pizza is a delicacy!

Small pizza rounds from freshly made dough, quickly fried and then covered in tomato sauce and a handful of mozzarella and a sprinling of parmesan, then folded in two are one of my favourite memories of childhood treats that my Granny used to make for me!

Not slimming, mind you, but a fabulous few mouthfuls of delight! Nothing scary about that.

OMG it was gorgeous! I think it was made by Kraft or Sun Pat - There were two kinds a red top jar and a blue top jar - the red top was orange and the blue top was pale yellow - Grrrr - I just can't remember what it was called and it will annoy me all day now!

I've remembered! It was called Cheddarie (sp) and it was lovely!

Not sure if it's the worst food product, but fairly high on my list would be reduced-fat cheese. It's like eating candle-grease! _pale_
