Someone was giving away Leaflets in Southend today, Complaining about the Cruelty to Cows, and their Calves (immediately killed after birth) and offering Milk-free ice-cream that she opined was "Very Nice". The van I was directed too had a long queue, as any free ice cream outfit would. Apart from the queue, the Diabetical nurse might have seen me eating ice cream that may have contained Sugar. (not that I'm convinced that sugar content was significant).
Can you imagine anyone in Southend buying anything other than Rossi's. (no I'm not advertising)
Going off on a (almost) different thread... One of my early jobs was a well-known (then) Pie and Sausage Factory, Their partners produced Icecream - anyone remembers that stuff sold in cinemas among other things labelled as "Contains non-milk fat". Note the link ... Beef, Bacon, And non-milk fat... Lard is wonderful stuff.
I remember the advert, "More than a treat; a food"

Walls ice cream was banned from our home after my sister spent a summer vacation working in their sausage factory.

Walls ice cream was banned from our home after my sister spent a summer vacation working in their sausage factory. Like that. Eh? I have one of those home sausage makers here, but TBH usually buy sausages from a local butchers. You can actually watch them being made through a glass-panel into the production area and exactly see what goes into them - always entertaining for tourists etc.  You can watch the production of minced-meats and burgers, too. |

I remember The Lard from the Beasts became used in the icecream factory as "Contains non-milk fat". Remember the Poster beside the adjacent railway station had Alf Garnet (some sort of TV character) holding a nicely grilled sausage on a fork with the Motto, "Stab one tonight". Advert taken down after a member of the very large Asian community was stabbed in front of that poster. Walls didn't last long after that, and got absorbed into a lesser known butcher. Their Ancient office block became the Radio Station for that Asian Community.

Having made a curry, this afternoon - It's curried seal, (never mind that it looks like chicken) it's seal, so I won't invite any of you.
I'm just going to have a meal.

I'm going to do a veggie-burger for tea. No! This does not mean I'm turning Veggi. Nor even that I might just be luring seals into a false sense of security.
Though the latter is more likely.

It's warm and sunny this evening. Though neither, excessively.
Decided I don't want salad, so am going to have a club sandwich. If tomorrow's weather is as forecast that'll be plenty early enough to return to salad.
