Fussell's vs Nestlé condensed milk (banoffi pie)

[Bill Davy]

Cannot find Fussell's (OK, have not tried very hard) but did find Nestlé
(spit). On their can, they suggest caramelising it in an open saucepan, and
in just a few minutes! Now, where's the fun in that? So, has anyone seen
Fussell's recently?

Sadly, my Hungry Monk cookery book does not say I cannot use Nestlé (spit)
but I'd rather not.

I always search for an alternative to N***** but for condensed milk can
never find it.

Fussells is, in fact, a subsidiary of Nestle

I feel really guilty for this, like I'm personally responsible, so I'm just
going to apologise and wander off now.....

Well, let's hope someone else comes up with a product, or failing that, a
recipe to make sweetened condensed milk in a tin :-(
I cannot believe Nestlé (spit) have a monopoly on authentic Banoffi pie.

We use whatever *condensed* milk we can find. I *think* it was Fussels
from Morrisons. I read the stupid instructions about caramelizing in an
open pan last time, it said there was a risk of the can bursting if you
boil it. No doubt the lawyers <spit> insisted on the new recipe. We
boiled the can in the normal way, and it did not burst
