Childrens party food in the 70s :

Egg butties (egg mashed with Heinz salad cream)
Potted meat butties
Salmon spread butties
Mini pork pies (cut in quarters)
Chocolate rice krispie or cornflake cakes
Fairy buns
Jelly and ice cream
Tinned fruit with carnation or Birds Dream Topping
Jam Tarts
Swiss Roll
Birthday cake - one slice to take home (no party bags)
I used to love all of it except for the salmon spread butties.
