25 Poor Man's SUPPERS Brits Over 70 Still Cook Just for One

Woolton pie, tripe and onions, pease pudding, stovies, panackelty, scouse, bread and dripping, and the bubble and squeak that nobody ever wrote down. In this video: 25 cheap suppers our mothers made in the ration book years and after, and that you can still cook today, just for one. For each one you will hear what it was called where you grew up, what it cost in minutes of a working man's wage, and why it filled you up when there was hardly anything in it.
