Are there any 70's/80's school cooks?

Chocolate concrete was fab. Anyone remember that? It was usually served with a squirt of mock cream on it, which was horrid, but once you'd scraped that off, it was great to smuggle into your regulation knickers pocket to keep you going through the afternoon classes.
I liked the sago (frogspawn) and semolina puds tho. I was a strange child!

. My school days are long ago. School dinners were wonderful for steamed pudding and custard days. Horrible for prunes and custard days. I have hated prunes ever since

Our school had wonderful dinners, but that chocolate tart was the only one I hated. My favourite was the cornflake tart.

Ooh thank you, I'll give this a try.

You have to know where to look!
Was it this by any chance?
