Cremola! I remember my mum giving me that in the Sixties. Used to have it with jam. I also recall liking 'clouds and zepellins' (bangers and mash) and rice pudding. But the thought of eating all these things now turns my stomach. After I was exposed to school dinners I went off any kind of sloppy pudding (except jelly), including custard (the skin!), mashed potato (the hard lumps!), blancmange (the skin
and the lumps!) - unfortunately they had blancmange every day at my primary school and you had to eat it. There were a lot more foods I was put off besides but over the years I've undone a lot of the damage; not with the sloppy ones though. I feel sick just writing about the subject.
Just wanted to get that off my chest - or stomach. As far a
s Did You Know goes, looking through my own collection for examples of title tracks not on albums, I see that the Cardigans
Emmerdale is not on the album so titled but on its follow-up
Life; that Pulp's
His 'n' Hers does not contain the track of the same name, rather that's on an EP; and that Elvis Costello released an album of country covers entitled
Almost Blue - the title he also gave to an original song on his next album
Imperial Bedroom, where it presumably displaced the song of the same name, forcing it out on to the b-side of a 12in single.
