Houses of Parliament outsourced

The last bottle of HP sauce was produced in the UK today.

From tomorrow, production is ‘outsauced’ to the Netherlands. The brand’s U.S. owner H.J. Heinz has said the move is needed to use spare capacity at its Netherlands factory.

HP’s popular taste is a tangy mixture of malt vinegar, tamarind, dates, sugar, apples, and spices. It goes well with cornish pasties, mince and tatties, faggots and peas and just about anything fried or mashed.
