    Not a joke!

    During renovation works they were discovered in the loft of a house.
    several wooden crates with tins of French Fries from 76 years ago.
    The crates among other details were printed: Ministry of Food
    Dried potato
    Colman Ltd.

    Tasted stuffy and earthy according to the 24 year old German Marius Ruegge

    Stefan.

    NB: Any interest in having some tins?

    And they're STILL inedible after 76 years.

    Are you a member of Linked In? Marius Ruegge or Rügge is.
    If not, I will get in touch with him for you and ask for his price.
