Not seen one in the shops in years.
Did you all act like you were at a rave when you found out what you were having for dinner, with a neighbour walking past the house (speaking to camera) stating "they're having chicken tonight"?
Fray Bentos definitely still around. I usually invest in a couple in the holidays when the missus heads up north with the kids to the in laws for a few days and I can't be arsed cooking
If you had ever visited the factory where FB is produced, you would not touch one with a barge pole - literally.
Also, Spangles.
I cant believe the Cuban leader would lend his name to a poorly produced product.
Uruguay not Cuba
Why would a Uruguayan leader put his name to shit pie?
Uruguayan birds are lovely btw.

It's not been for quite a while.

Read a few references to the Sea food man with his tray of cockles, muscles and shrimps. And cheese rolls etc. in cling film sold from behind the bar. Both of these were still regularly to be found in several pubs near us prior to the lockdowns.
As for Breaker I once worked my way through twelve cans of the stuff at a house party on a Saturday night. I wasn't very well. Felt worse when I realised they were months out of date. Still felt a bit rough when I went to school on the Monday morning
