Nowadays they tend to come in bags though the rolls are still sold. IMHO they do not taste the same though since Nestles have taken them over.

Thinking about it again drinking in a cafeteria, apart from the fact it was in a college situation, it quite usual in Britain. A lot of our cafeteria's are licenced so would be quite normal to see youngsters having a drink with food mid day.
I must admit am surprised that one on a college campus was licensed during the day serving a drink with evening meal I understand but midday a bit strange.

Of recent times we now get minced (ground) beef, pork, chicken, turkey, and quite a bit of lamb, the local supermarket I tend to use even sells frozen minced lamb. I have a packet in freezer at the moment.
Dad will not eat beef so if I use mince it is always lamb. I used some about a month ago to make burgers from a recipe homemom gave me.

My hubby bought an entire CASE of Coffee Crisp bars when we were last in Canada, and ordered another case when that one was gone!

READ: John 4:7-14
Whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. —John 4:14
In 1981, Ida's Pastry Shoppe in Jenison, Michigan, advertised this special offer: "Buy one of our coffee mugs for $4.79 and fill up your cup for a dime each time you visit."
But the owners never expected that 25 years later, four longtime customers would still be getting their cup of java every day—for 10 cents.
You won't find many deals like that anymore. But Jesus offered something far greater to the woman at the well (John 4:10). He said, "Whoever drinks of this water will thirst again, but . . . the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life" (vv.13-14).
The woman at the well was ready to listen. None of her many personal relationships had ever filled up her emptiness. Then Jesus offered her "water" that would soothe her parched life and give her something more—the promise of eternal life.
That same promise is ours as well. Jesus said, "I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly" (John 10:10).
God's grace and love come from a bottomless reservoir. Drink from the water He offers, and you will never thirst again.

Hey people!
Just hanging here at Hoodie's...sorry I haven't signed on this weekend!
Are we the only ones here?
What is Hoodies?
Yep...technically, I probably shouldn't be but my mom has all the worker's comp stuff and hasn't found out yet where I can go in DC so I haven't seen a doctor yet.
Howdy :)
Loved the gums as a kid becasue we still had rationing in the UK (before your time!) and the gums lasted a long time.
Thanks for the wishes for a Wonderful Lord's day.
Rationing had just about finished when I was born but friends who are 10 years younger than me can just about remember it.
They have these cookbooks that I think are Better HOme & Garden and right now you can get the book with pink checkered instead of the traditional red and some of the proceeds goes towards breast cancer research, so I will have to see if there are any good recipes in there. Then there is always google, right?
At any rate, I will be buying the cookbooks in bulk and giving them out as Christmas gifts this year.
Thank you Dolly
May already be replied to, but in the Pacific Northwest we call that a studio apartment. Usually the kitchenette is in the same room, and the only separated room (walled off, has a door) is the bathroom.
Snugs, do you have these? They are black licorice with a semi-hard shell coating.
who DOES think for herself.
What type of oil do you use to fry the chicken?
