Chrissoftley Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 Do they still make Pukka pies in Rotherham? And KP nuts? On their factory on Eastgate it used to say "This is the home of Britains number one nut." Not sure if they meant the product or someone that worked there... the KP factory is on the Hellaby industrial estate, I spent 18 months working next door to it having to smell peanuts being roasted all day.

hauxwell Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 It’s a pity you couldn’t put a Sheffield Fish Cake in the Hamper. When I come through to visit friends I always go to Hillsborough for chips and fish cake, cant get them in Newcastle. The only thing I can think of is Bakewell Tarts, it is near to Sheffield.

You couldn't make it up:suspect: Or could you? I thought that Hendo was made by L and P, shipped to sheffield and then diluted with Don water to give it that distinctive taste.
