Indeed, I remember my dad telling me about the things his dad used to eat after the war. Lardy bread was his favourite, along with tripe and whatever other offal he could pick up cheap enough.War time rations were very small.
I know from relatives that pepper sandwiches, sauce sandwiches and sugar sandwiches were the norm and if you had jam then you did not have butter on the sandwich.
I think you had to be inventive with what you had.
