AFAIK, they took out about 60% of the salt*, don't know about anything else.

*It was a discussion topic on the radio a couple of days ago.

[gniewkoit]

They changed the recipe? That's like rewriting the complete works of Shakespeare!


An egg's no good if its yolk 'aint runny. [no]

Apparently HP tastes awful now, but not yet tried it myself.

And yea if the yolk isn't runny, it becomes powdery, I really hate hard boiled egg yolks.

The new recipe of Britain's best-loved brown sauce, synonymous with bacon sandwiches, fry-ups and sausage and mash, now contains 38 per cent less salt. But critics argue the change in salt levels for such small amounts of food makes no difference to our diet.
The previous version of HP Sauce contained 2.1g of salt per 100g. The new version contains 1.3g – but fans claim the change has come at a high price. They say it just doesn't taste the same. edit:

its bland , brown and sticky , none of the bite it used to have - reducing the salt has affected the other ingredients

That you Brits don´t have any taste is a given,..
Let me just throw in a few things here, Black pudding, Marmite, Haggis, Jellied Eels, the list go´s on.

Tomato sauce on this sandwich since they changed the recipe and thus the flavour of HP. The description of that sandwich is making me hungry. [cursing][thumbup]

With the possible exception of Marmite, those are things which are not commonly eaten over here, maybe back the 1900s they was. Today they are rarely eaten and only then mostly by 80yr olds in their local rundown cafe.

Black pudding is all over the place. Wetherspoon offer it with their English breakfasts, and it was available as an option with the cooked breakfast at my hotel in York. I love a nice piece fried.

Haggis is a Scottish thing and I don't know how common it is to find it up there. Never had jellied eels, but my Nan liked them.....I think.

Yea, but you're weird and so are the Yorkies, who are mostly comprised of pensioners, so that doesn't count. [thumbup]

Coming from the land of rotten cabbage, that's amusing...

Black (AKA blood) pudding is delicious, so is Marmite and Haggis - you really should at least try them!
Haven't tried jellied eels or bubble and squeek, but some think they're very tasty as well.

[Aleksis]

bubble and squeak (aka potatoe and cabbage) is lovely - the kids love it; black pudding aka blood sausage is the same had some in my breakfast pie for the rugby

now - german bread is something special - last time i used a loaf to bang in the tent pegs (nails) then had to use a felling saw to cut it in half.

I was kidding btw, everyone and every country has it´s own styles and tastes.
So hey you like your eggs disgusting, more power to you.


btw rotten cabbage ?
Do you mean "Sauerkraut" ? If so that´s not rotten, it´s fermented.
And if you call that rotten i could list you a long ass list of other fermented products you probably use on a daily basis

lol it was probably 2 weeks old

HP goes in there. Any other choice and you're either a woman or have no idea wtf you're doing.

hmm then i´m clueless, but then again our baker alone produces about 20 different breads, so God knows what you had

[Aleksis]

ask him then about a dense grey coloured bread and see what he says :P

He´ll probably say "ohh that sh!t, we only sell that crap to the Brits"

[Buyemae]

I know, GF
Heck, I only like KFC coleslaw after it's been in the fridge overnight.

BTW, folks, it was tripe and onions I meant, as a child they made the mistake of telling me what it was, when they were trying to get me to eat it - strangely, I love black pudding and haggis, though ...

[Frjrbefd]

Never tried tripe but from the smell of it i cannot imagine it tasting good my Akita loves it though.
It smells like a dead rotten badgers ******* stuffed with 20 dead rats assholes.

Are you sure your not thinking of fried liver and onions as thats fantastic, Ox livers my favourite then pig then lamb, ive never understood why lambs the most popular.

Yeah black pudding is great i get some loverly stuff from the butcher, ive tried supermarket haggis and it is good, would love to try more authentic haggis.

That's certainly an acquired taste. Yuck.
