£1 for a 400g tin.  Assuming a litre of diesel weighs 1000g (as water does) and costs around the £1.30 mark then custard is roughly twice as dear as diesel.

If the custard was taxed like diesel, it would cost vastly more!

Best to keep schtum, lest you give the money grabbing b@stards another reason to hit us!

Do you know that the tax on fuel, is also levied on the base price, including VAT?

A tax on tax!

What's better than apple pie and custard?

Custard ready made at Aldi, comes in a carton 500g. Just warm it up - 45p
Report Dr Crippen March 19, 2019 7:59 PM GMT
But I doubt if you can run a diesel on it.

I tried a tin of supermarket custard instead of Bird's but it was far too watery.

why cant you buy a tin of chocolate custard>?
Report Dr Crippen March 19, 2019 8:14 PM GMT
You need to get down to the Aldi lybertyne. Their custard is so thick you have to squeeze it out of the carton.
Then rip the carton apart in order to lick the sides.

I like to mix it with porage oats, add a chopped banana (or 2) and sprinkle some hot choc powder on.

Highly sweetened milk thickened with starch. Wouldn't fresh cream be a better choice? I know it's a matter of taste but I prefer cream.

You could try making your own (something I do, if I don't have a tin at the time)!

You will find that, when you add the cost of all the ingredients, you wont be far from £1.00 in any case!
