anyone remember?

Had a meal with the family today for my dad's birthday and we were talking about food from our childhood. My mum was often poorly as we grew up and dad worked shifts so a lot of the cooking fell to me. We all remember a prepackaged fritter/savoury pancake mix that tasted fantastic (it was the 70s so it might be awful now). Problem is no one can remember what it was called. Mum helpfully thought it might be in a yellow packet, my sister seems to remember a green one. I don't remember the box but the powder was a strong yellow colour and was mixed with water to create a thick dropping batter. It wads easy to make and everyone loved them.

Any ideas?

 

Findus crispy pancakes? I used to like the curry ones, yummmmy

 

No earlier than that, box of powder mix

 

Tiger milk?

 

Bisquick maybe, not sure it was savoury.

 

Aunt Jemima?

 

Pollyfilla?

 

for emergency's [nuclear war etc]

 

Think that's sweet American style pancakes, these were definitely savoury.

 

No think I'd remember the packaging of that. From what everyone's carp memory can dredge up, it was a quite plan box with pictures of fritters on the front

 

@Barneyrubble come on, you're well old, you should remember *runs away sniggering* or ask the lovely Betty. Early to mid 70s. Smallish box, about the size of a cornflour box now. Yellow (or possibly green) packaging.

 

sorry wilmz my memory is normally perfik but we neaver can remember ,it must be norvern stuff ??

 

Maypo, Robbies pancake mix , eagle mills bisquick

 

Birds Custard?

 

Colmans mustard?

 

Could you not just have 'bubble n squeak' like we had to.....none of these fancy pancake mixes in our house.

 

you was only a pip squeak in the seventys

 

I was a sperm cell for some of the 70's

 

When we went camping as a kid, we used to take big 2lb tins of brisket. Blooming lovely with brown sauce on a sandwich. But I can't get it anywhere now.
