My Mum was one of the 'not that foreign muck' persuasion for many years, olive oil for ears, pasta for other people, and no fruit in salads until Tui Flowers convinced her and the rest of the fifties housewives that there were better ways. We live and learn, change being inevitable.

I'll happily use her cookbooks though, and my grandmothers - and even though I grin at scone dough pizza with tinned spaghetti and pineapple chunks, I'll still happily make it once in a blue moon just for the nostalgia of it. Only my version has way more vegies than my grandmothers!
