Even teachers (the generation that has just passed away) carried a few "roasters" (roasted potatoes) to school in their young days.
A teacher named Denis Murphy (who is now dead) resigned from the assistantship of Kiskeam Boys' School in 1919 at the age of 65. He told me that when he started teaching about the age of 18 or 19 his salary was £15 and his food during school-hours a "roaster" which he brought with him in the morning.
In the time of the famine boiled nettles and wild rape (priseach Bhuidhe) were used for food.
When flour came into common use bread was eaten for breakfast only at first. Potatoes were used for dinner and potatoes or "gruel" for supper. Afternoon tea has been the custom for all classes for the past 30 years.
"Gruel" was never eaten expect for supper.
Home-cured bacon is now used by all classes in preference to factory-cured bacon. It is very much cheaper and "goes farther"- Bailitheoir
