You recently mentioned Flying Saucers, a type of lolly - not sure if I ever had one of those, or if they were available in New Zealand.
However I do recall Frying Saucers, which were advertised on TV.
Again, not sure if we ever had any, but the name stayed in my head for a few decades, so the ad campaign worked.
They were made by Irvines. They were meat and vegetable combinations, cooked in a frying pan.
Here is a short item from TV-1 in NZ about them.

Anyone know them or know anything like them?

Maybe if rissoles had been called Frying Saucers here in the UK, us kids might have found them more appealing. I remember eating them at school and at home in the mid 1970s. Thankfully I havn't had the dubious pleasure of eating rissoles since then.
ReplyDeleteI think I loved rissoles Anon. Wow. What a memory. I liked faggots too. Last year I tried Brains Faggots. Very squishy but tasty! Thanks for the post Paul.
