I've never been able to tolerate eggs, partiularly egg white. And even the thought of fried eggs makes me feel sick!!!
As a child I felt pretty queasy about hot milk and cheese too, though I enjoy cheese now. My other used to fry a lot of things in lard, and I couldn't stand that either, and as mine were born in the 30's there wasn't much patience for any of this kind of finickiness.
Sometimes there are supermarkets that fry food here too. When that it is full swing, it can be very hard not to retch.
This was a childhood nightmare, it was served with some sort of tinned milk / cream.
Roy Apologies if someone else has already mentioned it, but I believe the tinned milk you referred to is Evaporated Milk. I'm not sure how popular it is now, but I seem to recall it being commonly used back in the 70s and 80s.
There was evaporated milk, and there was some kind of sterilised cream, too. I didn't have a problem with these though, but with real cream I did.
That's sold here in Hungary, in tubes. It's added to coffee.
It's sold occasionally in the UK in cans too. I loved it, but I know it isn't good for you!
The only other tinned milk/cream I could recall was Sweetened Condensed Milk (very sweet and sickly), but I think it was used more as a dessert ingredient, rather than as a pouring cream.
However, I've just had a wee look on the internet and seen that there is such a thing as tinned sterilised cream.
