Taste that pork!
Woman's Weekly: 27th July 1957
For those of us economising in the New Year. In actual fact, I was occasionally fed this stuff in my childhood, so, yes, I can taste it, but I'm not sure pork went anywhere near it. I know, I know, I'm a cossetted modern woman who doesn't know she's born...

I have a bright orange woolly hat with UNOX emblazoned across the front, courtesy of a Christmas party in the Netherlands -- I think UNOX is a Dutch company, so the word doesn't have the same comedy value that it does in English. Never tried the meat products; they looked scarily indestructible.
Ah, and actually the picture shows that it's packed in Holland!
"Hartog's Vleesch Mij." = "Hartog's Flesh Manufactory." Undertones of Ed Gein there. Very reassuring.
That looks like my Dad's kind of salad. Half tomatoes, whole spring onions, slabs of cucumber and anaemic lettuce. Mmm.
What are "open air children"? Are they allowed in the house?
