I’ve got a soft spot for those McVitie’s digestives (chocolate covered of course)
I wonder if they’re the same as yours?
No such luck. Mom made sure ours was well shaken. But at least it was whole milk 3.25% back then. Not like the 0% skim milk I get nowadays.
Perch here is a goto for a fairly neutral white fish anyway. I would worry about how the whole GMO fish thing is going to turn out. There seems to be a big resistance to identifying it (surprise).

Ugh. Still on full fat here. My excuse is as a vegetarian I need the extra nutrition.
It took a good 15-20 min to soak a bowl of shredded wheat good and proper.
I also leave the chunky bits of garnish out of all my pudding recipes.
Wiki says the Aussies started the dastardly problem, the UK came up with a similar version and, being one of the colonies, it was forced onto our shores. Don't feel bad Nez. Many of us had it forced on us as children. Recovery has been slow, but the demons are almost purged.

Two raw eggs in a glass topped off with tomatoe juice/ v8 with liberal amounts to Tabasco sauce used to be my hangover cure.......back in the day it was 2-3+ times a week, never once got sick.
I think your immune system needs a constant workout to be tip top.....that is except for those that are immune compromised of course.

Not sure the raw eggs are the best recommendation. Them things hittin' the back of your throat at that point would do something serious to the gag reflex. I'm thinkin' that might undo all you were trying to accomplish.
Back in days of Saturday morning hangovers, we used to smoke a little bit of BC bud, grab a weak Bloody Mary and tell ourselves 'we will never do this again.' Noon comes around and we were back on the horse making sure those 'other guys' never out-did us.
To this day, I have people reminding me, they used to see us drinking beer or bloody mary's at 8am on the balcony, getting primed for NFL and CFL football is something they make sure I never forget.
That's why I use an alias name and avatar.
Oh wait.

Frank Sinatra's "Live at the Las Vegas Sands" 1978 -- "I feel sorry for folks who don't drink because when they wake up, that's the best they'll feel all day."
This recording is now on regular rotation on Sirius XM and wifey and I have listened to it over and over again as we traverse I-80.
I have a kind of "guilty secret" fave recording from Vegas, a Buddy Rich record "Keep the Customer Satisfied" recorded live at the Tropicana, at 03:00AM, after three sets, in 1970 (label is Liberty, LST11006), just one of those perfect recordings. Produced by Richard Brock, M+S overall stereo mic plus 19 fill mics.
There is a song on side 2 thar features a very complex, unison part for the whole reed section. When they finish that section there is applause from the audience and someone shouts "Yeah!". I knew my vinyl playback system was starting to get where I want it when I played that song and suddenly, after 40 years, realized that the guy who yelled was not in the audience but was Buddy.
