For anyone who was a kid in the 1950's?

Question

CAN YOU REMEMBER A PRODUCT YOUR MUM HAD TO BUY WHICH WAS MALT EXTRACT AND SOMETHING (NOT VIROL).

Answer 1

It was malt and cod liver oil

Answer 2

I can remember there was cod liver oil and malt - dreadful stuff.
I never had it as a child, but I bought some by mistake once when I wanted just malt extract. Ever since then, when I buy malt extract I check half a dozen times to make sure it hasn't got cod liver oil in it.

Answer 3

The only thing I remember with malt in in was Ovaltine and Malt o Meal

Answer 4

We had Malt as kids and it is still available.
Have a look in the supermarket along side of Golden Syrup and other thing like that.

Answer 5

Born 1951- cod liver oil and malt. It was very thick and was almost wound onto the spoon where it heaped up. As far as I can remember it tasted OK.

Answer 6

I am a kid of the 1950's and we got codliver oil and rosehip syrup and a good balanced diet. I gave my children malt from a jar [we got it from a pal who worked in a brewery] and you should see them now. Whall. Don't know how to print that word.

Answer 7

I remember something that was curiously called "Radio Malt".
