    Bugger Colmans and their exporting activity. Reward Wing Yip for importing stuff and making the balance of payments worse.

    There is an OBE for Woon Yip, founder of the UK’s foremost importer of oriental foodstuffs.
    How I wish we had an ecomomist for Prime Minister.

    When I spoke of brown sauce, I meant like Daddies or HP Sauce.

    However, OK Sauce:

    OK Fruity Sauce was a brown sauce made by Colman's and is now only available to the export market. And then imported again by Wing Yip!

    So, like all the best cuisine, it is British.

    Just like curry shops in Britain make proper British curry, so Chinese take-aways in Britain make proper British Chinese scoff.

    None of that dodgy foreign muck.

    Considering that the region has just had the trauma of the worst floods in 10 thousand years, and that my missus is from Cumbria, I think this tread is tasteless to say the least.
    Obviously, if my saus was the size of a cumberland, I would nip in and take her mind off the floods immediately

    Ah dreams, that reminds me. (I'm going off topic, but whenever has that mattered in one of Atw's topics)

    I had a nightmare involving daleks last week.

    AtW,
    if you are at the stage of dreaming about sausages then you really ought to seek counselling.
    For your own sake, go and get laid!
