Pek processed ham and ketchup sarnies with loads of butter.

Bought some a few years ago to try and recreate the ultimate hangover comfort food and spat the lot out.

Still do this. Pek sarnies the good of gods.

My older sister used to add tomato ketchup to her mashed potato and mash it all up. I used to tell my Mam to stop her doing it as it just really irritated me. No one took any notice.

Pie Sandwich. Pie from Simpson’s the baker. Bread by sunblest.

Tomatoes dipped in English mustard (or Mustard, as we used to call it) and then dipped in sugar.

Gelders mince pie in two slices of buttered bread.

Just realised I still do most on this list.

I couldn't bear spam or pek, or tuna or salmon. Probably why I had this 'mock crab' thing.
