 @63e41be8 Irish Americans are the ones that have mentioned it, but someone in Australia said they did this too

 @e528fa39 So a little googling suggests that yes, this is an Irish thing, which I did not know. Now wondering if it's a result of a lot of food insecurity in relatively recent history (it's gross, but it is nutritionally dense). Not that lots of other countries have had their own food issues though.

Weird.
