While doom scrolling on TikTok when I very clearly should have been asleep I came across a video of Cilla Black.
The singer and presenter died in 2015 but she remains a household name for millions and I have very fond memories of watching Blind Date and Surprise Surprise when I was a kid in the 90s. But the clip I saw was from a BBC documentary 'Eating With...' from 2006 and showed Cilla explaining how she enjoyed consuming oranges.
She tells the viewers about a strange snack pairing she had created when she was a child, and something she still enjoyed, after becoming so eager as a child to eat them both at the same time. She had taken an orange, which had been sliced in half, and rubbed it with a beef Oxo cube, proclaiming: "Doesn't that look fabulous?"
