Woman's Weekly: 28th June 1969
You can still get Birds Eye Frozen Beef, of course, and although this ad is aimed at housewives, this product is now mainly aimed at the elderly or those living alone. Although I can appreciate how helpful it can be to have meat in small portions (I'm a devotee of Waitrose Easy To Cook), the frozen stuff is never quite as nice, in my opinion!
Ah boil in the bag beef! I remember it well. The gravy was always watery and tasted really artificial, so I'd insist on Bisto gravy instead :oP Awkward child? me?!
