QNS growing up we lived at the top of a hill and down in the valley was what we called the Bacon Factory, it was really KR Darling Downs Bacon Factory and when they were cooking we could smell it. My grandfather had a friend who was a pig farmer and we used to use his shareholder number and buy direct from the factory. I still love KR hams and bacon.
We also had a lot of chickens and ducks and eggs were always plentiful, we supplied the whole street with fresh eggs. Food always seems to evoke wonderful memories from my childhood, my grandmother was a fantastic cook and she was always baking sweet treats.
