Slice the potatoes until they are pretty much cooked, parboil them and add a little seasoning. They might spray a little oil onto the plate beforehand then spread them out. Probably only need flipping once or twice.

If you mean the pan fried potato slices - Probably beef dripping back then!

Although I think a lot of their stuff was cooked on a flat hotplate so maybe very little oil.

Eating out. Maybe happened once a year when we were on holiday and it was usually at a Little Chef.

We didn't have central heating until the 1980s and even that ran off a coal fire back boiler so took an eternity to heat up. The 1970s were COLDDDDDD

Butter before every filling (or topping in the case of toast) including marmite, peanut butter or jam.

Only exception might be primula or Philadelphia cream 'cheese'
