vesta beef curry

Is this still available? Maybe I imagined i saw it in Tesco recently.

Would appreciate if someone had any advice.

Got an urge for one recently. had last one in early 80's.....

Alun

I remember those ... especially the little crunchy bits left when it didn't quite soak up enough water. Disgusting things I didn't realise they survived into the 80's though, the last time I had one was probably mid to late 70's I think.

Fray Bentos steak and kidney pies, on the other hand, well ....

OP I think you're looking back with rose tinted glasses- Vesta was beyond yuck-

However, if you still really want one, some UK supermarkets stock some

Dealz the €1.49 store stock it.

Just remembered I bought a Vesta Beef Risotto :rolleyes:about a year ago for old time sake, might give it a go today.:D

Aglomerado

I used to get those in the early 90s, the dehydrated meat was gank now that I remember it!

I used to also eat those "just add water" Little Dinners.

I ate some amount of crap before I learned to cook properly!

Just had a look at the cooking instructions,
To Microwave.
Add a knob of Margarine
stir in 15 fl of boiling water and cook on full power for 19 minutes. :eek:

Jesus,

Vesta Beef Curry, the height of sophistication back then. I thought they were the business, I would probably barf if I ate one now.....I would try it though.

I imagine it is what they use on space missions.

You're glamourising Vista Curry- I think you've just provided them with their next marketing campaign :P
