Cod liver oil with malt extract is not something we lacked as children.
the old ones still had memories of rickets and didn't want us kids to suffer.

I liked the taste and the texture. the dark jar that it came in  the big spoon that I dipped in and licked clean.

I don't think I would have liked rickets as much
