My Great Aunt was very ill when she was little and it was touch and go. Her mother was told to feed her loads of eggs each day.
She lived until she was nearly 97

I was given butter and sugar the 4 months I was ill with whooping cough as I had problems keeping normal food down with the coughing.

My mother made jam - oodles of it and we got tired of it so needed to find other sandwich fillings.
That's when we had sugar sandwiches Pat ;-)

I loved the taste of the suet in the dumplings, or in steamed puds
