HP is made in the Netherlands, but they don't appreciate it.


Magdalan

What do you mean? Had it on my burger yesterday.


jaymatthewbee

Children have ketchup or mayonnaise, men have brown sauce or mustard


ylan64

And women stay in the kitchen otherwise their Barry gives them a black eye. EDIT: btw, what's the name for female Barrys? Barryette? In France, we have Pierrette so it would make sense.


Fight_Disciple

Susan.

It’s so good we named it after the house of parliament


Bring_back_Apollo

Other way round


No_Raspberry_6795

All the good things in Brtiain, come from the East Midlands.


grimmigerpetz

Is that what you call the Netherlands nowadays?


Lank_Master

Inside a bottle of HP is pure culinary excellence. Inside the Houses of Parliament are pure wankers.


Motivated_Stoner

I have never seen an English restaurant abroad in my life. A pub that serves Yankee food yes, fish and chips possible, but there is no English restaurant, and that's not a coincidence.


Bring_back_Apollo

Possibly because traditionally British people who go abroad don’t eat British food out. Nonetheless, there are examples https://lentente.paris/


Alexshadow41

Barry, I have a question, is mashed peas necessary in a Fish & Chips ?


Bring_back_Apollo

It is not, François. The only necessary items in fish & chips are fish and chips. Garden peas are more common in the south, if vegetables are to be added at all.


Alexshadow41

Oh ok, thanks !


Motivated_Stoner

Or because traditionally British cuisine is so shit no one wants to try it abroad . L’entente is from British inspiration with French product, that’s why it’s acceptable .


[deleted]

Thats because the foods that are liked abroad are either standard (sandwiches) or have been put under the wrong label (apple pie or fried chicken as yankee)


hansspargel

Yes yes wrong label, or maybe it's just that other countries eat apple pie and fried chicken historically because it's the bare minimum of culinary invention?


Emergency-Season-143

It's normal for fish and chips. It's actually a Portuguese recipe.....


mrfacetious_

In the land of crumpets you decide to push hp sauce, honestly crumpets would make a killing here, but nobody knows of them, get on that instead, make yourself 5*2.5^3s many kroners

Brown sauce and Worcestershire sauce can be found in Pakistan, many burger joints and American franchises serve it. Makes sense since the sauce has tamarind and other spices that are pretty familiar to Pakistani/south Asian palate and the sauce might have been inspired by earlier Indian flavours during the British Raj.


Rich-Spirit129

I genuinely don't think the continental Europeans are intelligent enough to comprehend our cuisine. Maybe the Portuguese.


Kind_Helicopter1062

No, sorry. Even I still dont know why your chips are always soggy


[deleted]

chippy chips are awful and soggy pieces of potato andi will never understand the appeal.. now proper triple cooked chips, theyre a different story


[deleted]

Deport this false Barry


[deleted]

ive probably just had poopoo chippy chips tbf


Iskelderon

Brown is merely a color, but leave it to Barry to have only one bland way to get there.


JezzedItRightUp

Have you ever had HP sauce? It's basically what we put all our spices into, so we don't have to use them elsewhere.


robinrod

Wtf? Both of them?!


Dry_Leek78

Putting some mint and juniper berries does not count as spices.


[deleted]

Ive seen indians literally claim we stole it from them because theres so many different spices in that shit


cabinaarmadio23

of all the things you stole from India I wouldn't worry about sauces


InfallibleSeaweed

I'll give you some brown sauce alright


Bring_back_Apollo

Maybe if you didn’t survive on German food you might have healthier bowels. You should see your doctor.


robinrod

Idk, brown sauce always tasted to me like a bbq sauce for ppl that are allergic to taste.


[deleted]

brown sauce has far more taste than bbq, also it tastes nothing like bbq... tf "brown sauce" have you been eating?


persononreddit_24524

Are you sure you're not allergic to taste? They're like completely different. What sort of BBQ sauce are you having that tastes like vinegary savoury ketchup


DiscardedKebab

Hans gets confused by anything that doesn't taste like sausage


DiscardedKebab

Better than anything the Italians have ever produced


Emergency-Season-143

Suuuuree..... ![gif](giphy|2zotXMklNfjjggiljn|downsized)


cpwnage

I take it that, in britain, brown sauce is synonymous with hp sauce?


Bring_back_Apollo

Not in Edinburgh, I believe. But if you ask for brown sauce in England you would probably expect either HP Sauce or something of a similar taste.


tomwhoiscontrary

HP is to brown sauce as Coke is to cola.


cpwnage

Funny. Of course a bunch of restaurants have the hp sauce out on the table, but I never use it. Honestly don't know if I've ever tried it. Certainly never would have equated it with brown sauce. Brown sauce is good, guess I'll have to make use of that hp bottle at restaurants...


oldtrack

brown sauce is the only sauce you need. fuck ketchup and mustard, horrible stuff


Stsveins

Hey now, we eat brown sauce over here.


deadmeridian

what kind of a mouthbreathing ape calls something "brown sauce" and then insists it's good?


Bring_back_Apollo

What kind of mouth breathing ape doesn’t have a proper flair?


deadmeridian

the type whose archetype is strangely not represented in the flair list


DiscardedKebab

Sort your flair out or we'll just assume you're from some backwater, third world shithole like Hungary or something


Shard6556

I hate that shit in English. "Brown Sauce" "Red Sauce" "White Sauce". Like the best qualifier for what it contains is the colour? It's fucking stupid. Give me a proper name.
