Beef and Onion
One of the The Four Blessed Menus of 60s,70s and 80s compo rations.
Hmmm, what can be said about Beef and Onion, well it tasted nothing like the crisps! It gave you instant heart burn and you would burp the awful taste for at least 12 hours after eating it, known as repeating! Could be spiced up but a light sprinkling of curry powder was not ehough to rid it of it's foul taste!
