Now of course the medical profession cal that stuff 'Cholesterol' saying very bad for you.

But have to agree a good stew in the winter is great, bone a lot of chicken during the summer, make stock from the bones freeze and use in the winter as a base for soup. Got about ten litres in the freezer just now.

#13. Yes John, they'd have us believe that our diet will result in serious health problems when (or if) we get old. Ha!! When I were a lad I was fed a diet of dripping,salt, sugar butties,(ration book permitting), all contributing to problems in later life. Tosh! Never did me any harm. Well, apart from type 2 diabetes.angina,atrial fibrillation, gout, arteries resembling a hairs width- not to mention out of control hypertension. Oh, and thinning hair and ed. All the above controlled by liberal and regular prescriptions of Tetleys Bitter.

How about connyonny butties !Kids in those days we were always out side all so very active hardly ever saw a fat kid all bursting with health.

There in lies the secret, exersice something we all got plenty of as kids along with lashings of fresh air. Now the only air some get is from an air conditioner. But yes for all the failings of our younger day diet, liberaly dosed with copious qunatities of grog, we are still here. we still do most of the things we like and in my case have developed new skills. I have learned how to fall from the roof, off a ladder and a pair of steps without doing any lasting harm.
