It's an option for spuds or Yorkshire pudding if you don't have goose fat ;-)

I assumed that when people talked about bread and dripping they meant bread fried in dripping and eaten hot, not cold beef fat butties


Nope. Customer was offered a choice of marg or dripping when ordering a beef sandwich - in a breadcake. The butcher I used most cooked its own beef and decanted the dripping into dishes, where it acquired a fatty, white layer.

Cinnamon toast is still a thing in hipster cafes. That's just butter, sugar, and a bit of cinnamon powder for flavour. (On the toast, of course. It wouldn't be cinnamon toast without toast.)

Not so far from a cinnamon roll in basic ingredients. Maybe a bit of egg in the latter, and/or milk.

Nothing is better for frying fish and chips than beef dripping. Admittedly not likely to do much for your life expectancy.

We often had banana and sugar sandwiches - and sometimes without the banana element!


Yeah had a few of those

Cucumber and marmite on toast is still a favourite of mine.

My dad used to like sugar sandwiches and feed them to us too. He also had condensed milk sandwiches.

(Later in life he was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes ;-) )
