When I was a child my parents drained of the fatty juices from the roasting tin and let It solidify (Dripping), once cold it was spread on hot toasted thick bread, My grown up kids would report me to the health police if I tried it now.🙁

Sounds sinfully delicious.
I used to belong to a an informal dinner club of about 8 couples. Each month one of the couples would host an "gourmet meal" from a country of their choice. The main course would be supplied by the hosting couple with the others bringing wines, desserts, whatever. When it came to our turn we decided that rater than a meal from some foreign country we'd do a Canadian gourmet meal. We chose a recipe from Newfoundland called Fish n Brewis. DISASTER ALERT. I have never, in my life, had a meal more disappointing. It tasted, although I've never eaten it, like what I imagine drywall mud would be like. The reason I mentioned it was because part of the meal consisted of something called "scrunchions" which is kinda similar to what you described but chunky. BTW what, sort of, saved the evening was that one of the couples brought a couple of bottles of "Newfie Screetch" so by the time we'd consumed them we had forgotten about the Repas Horrible. I think the next time it was our turn again, as hosts, the others asked us to please be a bit more discerning when choosing a main course. 🙂
