General   (General discussion, talk about anything.)

Sorry if this subject has been discussed before, but I was watching MasterChef the other night on telly, and William Sitwell (food critic) asked the contestants to cook meals from their memory of school dinners, but to elevate it into something special. It would seem that they all hated their meals in school, so it got me thinking.

Apparently, long after I left school, chips, burgers, turkey twirls (?), pasta dishes and other “fast food” crap which contained no thought for diet was introduced; but when I was at school, I loved my din-dins.

The two puddings I hated the most were sago and semolina, which I refused to eat. My favourite was apricot flan with clotted cream.

One of my favourite main meals was the Irish stew and mashed potatoes. Deeelish!

Which did you love and hate the most?
