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...
It was a Fifties thing: it didn't catch on.

"and what could be simpler than cutting chunky thick slices of eunachs"

Forgive me - I think I'm going to be violently sick.
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.
What are "open air children"? Are they allowed in the house?
