XC60 Posted November 30, 2013 Share Posted November 30, 2013 As a 15 year old I served my apprenticeship in a garage next to cunninghams aka the pickle factory and serviced all their vans and cars and we were often given bottles of pickled onions and piccalilli as a thank you. Now on my trips back to Sheffield ( I moved away to sunnier climes in 1977) I always make sure I take at least 6 bottles of Hendersons with me.

flyer Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 Can I suggest the old adage . " Suck it and see ". Hmm dont know if i can risk the two pence for a bottle but seem to think its against the law in Canada they lumped it in with Pot and Heroin:hihi: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebatty Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 just found out today apparently a butchers in york sells it, some place in goathland does and the food weigh shop in the centre of whitby does too Despite some of the comments on this thread about the product being " Naff", there is still a heavy demand for it . We have a local store , which is one of a high standard and quality, which has a high turnover . Obviously it is a good quality product which is appreciated by many pallets. A matter of "taste " , one might say. But a proven one . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nagel Posted December 3, 2013 Share Posted December 3, 2013 (edited) After reading this I bought a bottle of Lea and Perrins this weekend and have to agree that it's much tastier than Hendersons. I was a bit dismayed to learn that Lea & Perrins has been owned by Heinz since 2005. Well if they never mess with the recipe then that's alright. Will Hendersons be keeping their Leavygreave Road site? I think they have to for the secret pipeline to the recently built Sheffield Bio-Incubator across the road. Who knows what foul liquids pass between the two facilities through that pipeline. If you don't believe me then go and look. There is a line of new tarmac crossing the road where it was dug up for the secret pipeline. Edited December 3, 2013 by Nagel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OUCH Leamington in sunny south Ontario as been the tomato capital for over 100yrs Those greedy ******** Heinz not making enough millions have just closed their main plant down and are going to Mexico for cheap workers ALL the fields in the south and mexico are watered by sewer run so be well warned the Heinz Ketchup will never be the same:gag: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mikep57 Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 Teatime last night, Hendersons on meat & tater pie as usual. New bottle opened (dated 02/10/16). Surprised to find it had very little taste! There is allways a residue in the bottom thats why it says "shake well". In the new bottle there was no residue and the relish was clearer. Do hope they haven't changed the recipe. Taking it back to the supermarket together with the bill hoping it was a bad batch. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

anywebsite Posted February 1, 2014 Share Posted February 1, 2014 (edited) Henderson's Relish lists saccharin as an ingredient. I doubt that was in the original recipe. Why do you doubt it was in the original? It was the first artificial sweetener, it had been around for 10 years when Henderson's started. Regulations over listing all ingredients are stricter now than they were back then, maybe it was in all along.
