Am I making this up? Does anyone remember a kind of malt loaf called either More Ma or Ma More - I'm not sure of the spelling? I seem to remember it came in a yellow and brown wrapper, and this would have been in the late 1940s or early 50s. We would have it sliced and buttered at teatime.
I don't think Soreen was being produced at that time - or if so, we never had it. I lived in Yorkshire - so it could have been a local product, I suppose. I've asked a lot of friends - but no one remembers it and I'm begining to doubt my own sanity!

I remember Youma loaf from my childhood, right down on the south coast. It was the only malt loaf available at that time and I used to love it - loads of butter on each thick gooey slice, a perfect teatime treat!
