Catalogue of delights 6

Large glass jars with coloured contents in liquid, and sometimes drab grey contents even though all were foods. Brilliant papaya and grey mango. Must check what Amra is. Apparently a fruit. Saw peeled and looked somewhat like a greyed kiwi fruit. Endless jars and containers of mixed savoury and often spicy nibbles, the sort we can now buy easily in packets and in bulk in Hobart and elsewhere. Had a sense from M that this was a traditional development from Malaya that had spread internationally.
