    Susidin
    This was another substantial food which the people had long ago. It was made as follows:- Meal was put into a cup or a mug and was first mixed with a little hot water, then cream or milk and sugar were added and it was eaten immediately.
    The people used to eat this food between breakfast and dinner as they rose very early and had an early breakfast.
    Flummery
    This used to be made by steeping some seeds that remained after the grinding of the oats. When steeping for about two days it got sour, and the liquid was then strained and boiled for an hour. When boiled it was served hot in plates with sugar.
