IRISH MAMS ARE renowned for forcing food on any generation of childer that darkens their door of a weekend.

And Fiona Ní Mháille found this out on Friday when she was taking the train home.

She informed her mam that she had already eaten – and that didn’t go down all that well

And there’s a good chance she ate it when she arrived as well – as is tradition.

Fiona posted the screenshots to Oh My God What A Complete Aisling and it’s safe to say everyone can relate.

Just a little potato, be grand.
