not sure if this has been done recently - ignore me please if it has. But what about things you LOVED when you were little and do you still love them now.

I am referring to food... not practical jokes you played...

Mine was banana sandwich and oats with chocolate milk... (Not together!!!)

Sweetened condensed milk!

Loved it on fresh white bread on its own, and as a hot drink, and still do!

Your banana sandwich (lush btw) reminded me of bananas and custard - an all-time favourite here.

You think it might have been "forbidden fruit" flavour? I remember that the apples from our neighbours garden always tasted better than our own even though they were the same variety...;-)

After Mass on Sunday my grandparents would take us for an ice cream in a little dark grocery store, it came to us in the little silver bowls with lime cordial dribbled around and a ground up flake sprinkled over it. Cost 10p and was delicious, still smile at the memory and still love going out for ice cream

My American friends have peanut butter and jam sarnies... nothing wrong with that, so why should peanut butter and banana be wrong. (Actually I think it sounds healthy, carbs and protein in one sweep...)

No it doesn't make you a bad mother!!

Not 100 percent sure, but I think if you buy eggs wth the lion stamp on them the hens have been vaccinated against salmonella?

1. Butter and sugar (mixed together in an eggcup) a special treat from my mum if I was feely poorly.

2. raw cake mixture (thanks to previous posters for reminding me of this yummy treat) the scraps of which myself and my sister would eagerly scrape out of the mixing bowl after my mum had poured the main content into cake moulds for baking.

3. Tate and Lyle treacle pudding (which came in a tin) that we had with custard after Sunday dinner.

I dont think I could face any of these now as I have lost my sweet tooth altogether! But happy memories as I lost my mum three years ago today.

"picking wild mushrooms, berries, roots"

loved that, used to get them first thing in the morning, put them on the flat plate of the range with a knob of butter and leave them to slow cook while we did the yard and then devour the lot, was never enough......

We used to come home in the evening to mums rants about the tears in the tops and staining from the berries, ah the good old days. Have tried to get my own kid interested, but unless it comes wrapped in plastic its either not fit to eat or more likely to much like hard work!!!!!

Yeah, no one else seems to remember Texan bars - so tough they'd rip your fillings out - Nice!

and Wagon wheels have definitely shrunk nowadays - they used to be as big as your head.

My suggestion- floats - Yum, yum.

And my kids eat their cake mixture, dipping their heads in the bowl until their hair's coated in gooey mess. It's just part of being little. Aaaaah.

My late dad used to have a kind of berry jam (similar to cranberries) with baked Brie but also with other cheeses and as children we used to laugh at him... now we all love it and remember him fondly, wishing he could see us passing on that habit (and a few other culinary oddities) to the next generation. Yes, happy memories
