Heinz cream of tomato soup is sooo good
@@rozhunter7645 Campbell's Soups are the most popular but certainly NOT the best here.
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow I think Heinz soups are awful there to watery not much flavour
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow I don’t eat a lot of tinned soup but the tomato soup is good. I make my own soup twice a week which is very popular in Scotland. So I only really buy tomato soup it’s a great comfort food
I lived in Botswana for a number of years and our heinz beans were manufactured in Zimbabwe.
In Britain we always added the juices from the meat we were cooking, it added some body to the gravy.
I make up a hot stock using red wine and herbs along with other ingredients. Pour in with the beef/ lamb whatever to cook with the juices . Then when the meat is to one side resting after cooking, all those juices and stock go on in a pan to be thickened with a wee bit of flour and when it’s ready I strain it and hey presto red wine gravy and no lumps!
Always do
Also adding so Bisto
That is correct - and any competent chef will tell you to sane any gravy to use as the base
for the next batch.
I have known three German chefs that taught me that -
Two of them are/were my sister's in-Laws
(they are now both deceased)
Meat juice cornflour and gravy browning best gravy 😋
Heinz are nothing here in the UK these days. They used to be be good for their baked beans. But now they are watery shite. Branston beans are far, far superior.
I dread to think, how many dodgy chemicals are allowed in the American versions of Heinz products compared to the restrictions in Europe. with that in mind I will steer clear of American Heinz products and stick to UK/European produced products without dodgy chemicals
Brexit: “Hold my beer”
@@misterc5783 Is that you Jeremy Corbyn? 🙄
And your evidence that EU laws has improved food safety is????
How many people died from hienz Tomatoe sauce pre 1974..?? None.
Doctors who lied about cv19 , masks, IV, thalidomide , bse, 6 foot distancing, stopping transmission with the vax...etc etc etc...Y OU believe them ??
EU law on keeping pig carcasses closed for inspection!!!...
UK ..use to be open and more revealing.
EU law boiling pork..so all your bacon turns white these days when cooked.
Give me the BSI standards back any day...the list of crap EU law is enormous...especially their law that nothing negative about the EU was allowed to be broadcast.
Best thing too do with American heinze products is spread them out thin on a tray and put in the sun untill dried out..then put in food blender and turn into a powder...then rack a few long lines and snort em gets you absolutely off your tits for weeks
Where Heinz have fewer varieties in the UK, it’s usually because there are more common brands. Mustard - Colemans, vinegar - Sarsons, mayo - Hellmans. Several pickle brands in the UK, just not Heinz.
Yes agreed, limiting this to Heinz in America vs. Heinz in Britain doesn’t give you a clear picture at all. HP also make several varieties of BBQ sauce under their brand, which I think comes from before the time when the parent companies that own Heinz and HP merged.
Britain’s approach to gravy is very different from America’s, which obscures Britain’s much larger array of options for easy to make or ready made meat gravies. I have never tried gravy that comes in a bottle that compares with what you get stirring in boiling water over Bisto granules. Bisto, Colman’s, Erin, Knorr, etc., offer me alternatives that produce a better result than something coming from a bottle. They lend themselves better to augmenting with pan drippings for one thing. And I left America many years ago to live on the other side of the pond so I know what’s on offer on both sides.
Pancakes and waffles are also provided in a very different way. With Americans putting them in the frozen foods section. Brits treat them more like breads and baked goods sold at room temperature on ordinary supermarket shelves. I also prefer these to the ones that you take out of the freezer in a box and then toast them.
In the UK, us old school people would never use the word "Ketchup". Sounds so American. I and older people call it "tomato sauce". I'd never ask for "ketchup".
Ironically "Ketchup" was invented in Britain and called Ketchup even before tomatoes were discovered, maybe that's why we don't regularly call the tomato kind Ketchup since culturally we were used to the older varieties.
I was in a pub once and asked for Tomato Sauce she looked at me like I was speaking Alien, she said 'Ketchup'??? How the hell did this girl not know what I meant lol
I don’t think it’s a matter of old school vs. more modern. Brits tend to prefer ‘plain’ English words, Americans tend to value what they consider more precision. On the whole, though I come from America, I usually prefer plain English too. So you have Brits referring to ‘public transport’, while Yanks think it adds something to call it ‘public transportation, though I know it doesn’t really.
But there are times when it does. Tomato sauce just means a sauce made with tomatoes. So what you’re pouring over pasta is likely to be a very different thing to what you eat with a plate of chips. Brits will often refer to both as the same thing. For Americans the difference is immediately clear and obvious.
I call it red sauce
Tesco here stopped selling Heinz beans for a while, an argument about the prices or something, so we decided to try Branston beans (yes, the Branston pickle guys) & we fell in love with Branston beans so we won't go back to Heinz now that Tesco have settled their dispute with them. You snooze you lose, Heinz lol
Branson Beans should be a state secret. Once you discover you can't go back to Heinz. So much better and more tomatoey!
Don't like Heinz beans only Branston for me much better
I shop at Lidl, and have been getting their tins of "Newgate" Baked Beans and Pork Sausages for years. There was a period when they didn't have any supply, so I bought the Heinz equivalent... So disappointing! Six tiny, unsatisfying sausages, compared to the eight chunky ones in every Newgate tin; Shockingly few beans, and the rest of the tin was just full of thin, watery "tomato sauce"! And they cost nearly twice as much! Talk about paying for the name.... =:o\
@@BigScubes - Branston !
Us too. Even the kids preferred them. Only my husband didn't.
A lot of options you have in the US probably wouldn't do very well in the UK due to the sugar tax. This means that if a food/drink product contains more than a mandated amount of sugar it has more tax put on it. This is to try and get people to eat healthier and the companies making the products to reduce the sugar amount.
As for piccalilli...it's NOT an 'older' persons condiment. If you ever come to the North of England it is considered a mainstay, especially with pork pies, ham, cheese etc...
Totally agree with that
I LOVE Piccalilli and guess what!? As you say, it's NOT an 'older' person's condiment... I have been having it all my life, sH1t !!! I'm 65 in January 2023 - where has my life gone ??? 🤣🤣🤣
It’s brilliant,,piccalilli that is.
Oh don’t forget it with the corned beef
@@steveosborne2297 Mmmmm, corned beef, one of my favourites. Sandwiches, piccalilli, brown sauce, sliced tomatoes. With mash and peas cut into cubes and mixed up.
He failed to mention that although the UK no longer has to follow EU food regs it still does. Some are more stringent. A lot of Heinz products on sale n the UK are manufactured in the Netherlands part of the EU. As is Spam made by Hormel an American based company.
Well, yes and no... *Existing* EU regs, as they were on the official day of Brexit, were carried over to UK law. Any new ones the EU makes (or have already made) after that won't automatically be taken up here, though; and we now have the option to change the existing regs if/when we find a strong enough reason to do so, without having to get the whole EU to agree.
And I believe a ‘bonfire’ of ‘remaining’ geddit, huh geddit, food standards and regulations? is coming up this year, according to dear Rishi PM. Did you think all those trade rules tied to the EU would be hanging around forever? Of course not! Britain is taking back control!
@@therealpbristow Yes, we can change existing regulations, but history shows that the UK's political parties tend to favour the lobbying of the large food conglomerates over the health of the population. That's why there was so much concern about the Tories encouraging cheap imports of lower quality goods (like subsidised HFCS and chlorine-washed chicken from the US) in an attempt to correct the balance of trade deficit their preferred Brexit created.
@@RichWoods23 History shows the UK regularly has far better regulations, with the EU taking a long time to catch up.
You can tell how good those Heinz gravies truly are, when they don't sell them in the one country in the world that knows about gravy 🤣😂🤣
Never seen heinz gravy in europe before . We make our own . Cook meat ad herbs salt and pepper onion or mushrooms and done how hard can it be .
@@marcusfranconium3392 Brits have hmm Bisto
“It’s hard to make good gravy.” - No, it’s not hard at all, you just have to learn how to do it and how to balance flavours, plus a few tricks… ☺️🤗
@@lottatroublemaker6130 yep , why people buy packs or bottles beyond me .
@@marcusfranconium3392 for quickness and ease if you are in a hurry and haven't got time to make it because you are having a quick pie for example before you need to go out. We make our own when cooking meat but if it's the above scenario then it's good enough.
I suppose the sugar and corn syrup debate could go on forever there is a vast difference however in the UK (as far as I’m aware) we do Not use genetically modified corn unlike the USA. All the best. Rab
Also beet sugar is more economically grown in our climate, supporting the British beet sugar industry is both good for the economy and probably cheaper than importing corn syrup.
The most important difference is the speed in which HFCS is absorbed into your blood. The faster a sugar is absorbed into your blood, the worse it is for your health. Natural honey is one end of the scale, releasing energy slowly, HFCS on the other, dumping it all into your system with barely a delay
Branston beans are better than Heinz. Heinz cream of tomato soup is probably the best tinned tomato soup.
Your reaction to "Daddies Brown Sauce" was equal parts priceless and totally justified.
Thank goodness Daddies don't make mayonnaise, as they would call it Daddies White Sauce 🤣
Cheese and onion sandwiches with salad cream is comfort food and reminds me of childhood. Heinz said they were discontinuing it a few years ago and there was a national outcry!
Jars of gravy?!! can’t get over that 🤣🤣 i’m not a ketchup fan but i love heinz mayonnaise on EVERYTHING! xx i also always have a bottle of heinz barbecue sauce as I love it on sausages (square ones of course!) and i put a big dollop of it in my mince and bolognese xx
Never bought gravy in a jar I'm shocked gravy is so easy to make.
@@janolaful from granules it's easy to make, from scratch it requires a little more skill.
Mayonnaise on EVERYTHING and the only 2 dishes you specified were mince and Bolognese . Oh yes square square sausage . Has Gordon been round with a thermometer ?
mayochup is called Marie Rose sauce in the UK, used to make prawn cocktail, A simpler version can be made by mixing tomato ketchup with mayonnaise.
Yup that’s just what I said in mine. A lot you can mix yourself. I add a dash of Worcestershire sauce and paprika to make mine.
We make gravy using the roast drippings and Bisto. Salad cream is scrumptious. Love Ribena, hot in winter and cool water in summer. Picalilly is a great condiment too. I can purchase English baked beans at my local Safeway. If I need UK foods, I shop online at Goodman’s. Great content as always ladies.
I can't work out if you are UK or USA. Thinking USA, but that's a very UK style comment
@@krypton9984 hello. I’m from the UK and emigrated to the US and now have dual nationality.
Krikey ! You make gravy using Bistro !?!? You must be on government handouts . Never heard of flour ?
@@krypton9984 okay so bisto is available iin the USA ? Aaahhh Bisto
@@petertennent9604 I live in San Francisco and in the US it doesn’t believe in handouts. So, no I’m not, I like what I like.
I think you two are so adorable!! Natasha nobody will be mad that you don’t like beans 😂 I know loads of British people that hate them too. I absolutely love how genuinely interested you are in our ways and the differences between our countries. I’ve been watching you both for ages and have seen nearly all of your videos. Always such respect. Keep ‘‘em coming. 🤩 from Meg (Devon, England)
Awww that is so sweet Meg (and so are you 😍 ). They are an adorable couple. The kind of couple I'd love to personally meet.
Hard boiled eggs chopped small or mashed with a fork, mixed with black pepper, salt, fine chopped onion and salad cream makes an epic sandwich filling
Oh Yeah!... You can't beat a Boiled Egg & Heinz Salad Cream Sandwich. 😋👌
From an english point of view pancakes with syrup along with bacon, sausage and eggs for breakfast is surely more questionable than baked beans. More of an issue over here is hash browns taking over and replacing fried bread on a breakfast
Nooo!!! It's the BEST Breakfast EVER!!
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow We just can't get onboard the meat next to sweet syrup train 🤪
Its got to be proper maple syrup, I love pancakes and bacon and eggs. But fried bread is also great, fried in bacon fat. Not too keen on beans on toast, but will eat them very occasionally. I also like crispy streaky bacon, as much if not more than our usual back bacon, lived in US for a couple of years which is where I picked up eating pancakes and syrup. Loved going out for breakfast in the US.
That 3.2kg bottle has to be a catering size, we ska do have 4l and 4.5 kg catering sizes in the uk, (some in litres some in kg sizes)..
@@mellier7762 speak for yourself, UK here and that stuff hits different when you’re high🤣
Salad cream is awesome, you should try it! I prefer it over mayo, though my partner prefers mayo so each to their own. Salad cream is more tangy and I love it on chips, it's also great in a cheese sandwich or drizzled over a baked potato with tuna/cheese.
Salad cream is much tangier than mayo- and has a lot less calories as it doesn't have so much oil- good with salad, sandwiches etc. Sounds like that Heinz pickle is their version of Branston. Piccalilli does have mustard but the strong yellow colour comes from turmeric. Worcestershire sauce is trying to be Lea &Perrins- they used to have the copyright, but it expired.
I dunno what he was showing in those jars but it was not gravy looked more like sauce 😂. Yes it is the the same as Branston pickle, but Branston pickle is far superior can’t beat Branston pickle. We do pickle stuff over here, I love pickled onions. I remember when I was younger and I would go into the kebab shop after being out with my friends and buy a portion of chips from the kebab shop (not the chip shop they’re more like fries than chip shop chips) and I would put what they call “burger sauce over my chips turns out it is a mixture of mayonnaise and ketchup but I dunno how the Turks make it but it’s much creamier than anything you could get from Heinz.
agreed - Heinze Sweet Pickle is not as 'good' as Branston Sweet Pickle. Many years ago, my Dad bought a large jar of Bejams (remember them?) own brand pickle - our family of four loathed it so much, my dad threw it out. I'll do with out if it's not Branston Pickle.
Salad cream is really tangy but I love it. It's good on burgers because it adds a lot of flavour.
Also great on toast is salad cream. Weird I know but it’s more savoury than sweet stuff like jam.
Surprised the UK didn't have HP Fruity sauce, it comes with a green label and is more fruity/twangy than standard HP sauce. You should try salad cream in a tuna sandwich or as a baked potato topping of tuna, salad cream and sweetcorn (optional).
I didn't realise we no longer had fruity sauce - I used to love it growing up!
@@caroldonaldson5936 - We still do? I just bought some yesterday in ASDA! I can only assume he means, they didn't mention it, maybe?
@@caroldonaldson5936 we do it’s readily available
We don't use corn syrup & since just before WW2 The majority of our sugar is from Sugar Beets not Cane which is used mainly for specialty sugars,the beets are grown & processed on massive scale in the East Coast Counties especially East Anglia (Lincs,Cambs,Norfolk,Suffolk, Essex, & Northants,) The Biggest production plant for Refined sugar is in the Medieval Town of Bury St Edmunds Suffolk (Burial place of England's First Patron Saint the Martyrd Anglian King Edmund ).
I go boating in the Norfolk Broads about twice a year, and it's really cool to motor past the Cantley factory after harvest season where production is in full swing. You get a close up view due to it being built right up on the riverbank.
You also apparently used to get a wiff of mint from the Colman's factory when sailing into Norwich before they shut it down.
Although what she said about the description of HFCS (high fructose corn syrup) in the UK is correct; it has in fact negligible sales. That is because, outside of North America, it's actually not in that many British foods due to the fact it comes (mainly) from 'Genetically Modified' crops (GM crops) which we still don't use.
Salad cream is lush ...eaten it since I was a child ..different to mayo ..which I also like !
@@audreybagshaw5231 - I put salad cream on so many things... It just works!
agree.. but I do live in rural Suffolk... sugar beet grown all around this area.
Put some grated cheese on your beams on toast. Yum Also a knob of butter in your beans when heating them makes the sauce a bit thicker.
mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm yeah it's nice
In the UK, consumption of HFCS is negligible (0.38kg per person per year), whereas in the US it's 65 times higher (24.78kg per person per year).
Hello 'Dave of Yorkshire (I'm pretty sure we have commented together before?) - Anyway, although what she said about the description of HFCS (high fructose corn syrup) in the UK is correct; it has in fact negligible sales. That is because, outside of North America, it's actually not in that many British foods due to the fact it comes (mainly) from 'Genetically Modified' crops (GM crops) which we still don't use.
@@stewedfishproductions7959 in the USA HFCS is so popular because they put a high tariff on imported sugar, it's simply a matter of cost, mainly because there are only two states that supply sugar to the rest of the USA, so they have home grown HFCS.
It makes me laugh when they talk about free trade. The USA is as protectionary (and a closed market) as the EU with tariffs - it's why they both keep getting into arguments, they're both as bad as each other, ever growing tariffs in their declared and undecorated trade wars... In free trade there are no tariffs or barriers to trade, that's what free trade means - no tariffs, no quotas just natural supply and demand...
Processed sugar is unhealthy because of the speed your body processes it so it raises blood sugar levels quickly. HFCS is even worse, it's like turbo charged processed sugar
@@wullaballoo2642 Who told you that? Nutritionally and the way the body breaks it down is very similar.
_In your digestive system, sugar is broken down into fructose and glucose - so corn syrup and sugar end up looking exactly the same. Gram for gram, HFCS 55 has slightly higher levels of fructose than regular sugar. The difference is very small and not particularly relevant from a health perspective_
_Both sucrose and HFCS appear to be metabolized the same way in the body. Pure fructose can stimulate the liver to produce triglycerides and induce insulin resistance, risk factors in diabetes and cardiovascular disease_
Most of the reason the USA uses HFCS over sugar is economic and based upon trade.
@@daveofyorkshire301 I thought it was because they make money from poisoning their citizens and selling them drugs. It is slightly higher so not absorbed a lot faster than processed white sugar, (when I first found out about it somebody was suggesting 20% faster but I think that's incorrect) but that stuff is bad enough and it's still higher and there's a shit load of it in their food and drink, I saw a drink with 70g of the stuff, I wouldn't touch the stuff myself
It's strange that A1 steak sauce isn't really a thing in the UK since it was invented here.
Yeah it sort of like came and went within two or three years
@@alexrafe2590 A1 sauce originated in the UK in the 1830s It wasn’t sold into the US until the 1890s and it wasn’t until many decades later it was marketed as A1 steak sauce in the US .
HP sauce was originally sold in the UK in 1895 (although I must admit I prefer HP to A1 anyway)
@@steveosborne2297 good to know. It goes to show the dangers of making assumptions. I grew up in America, where A1 sauce could be found among the various similar condiment sauces. I noticed when I arrived in England HP brown sauce in a very similar bottle being sold in the same section of the shops along with other varieties of brown sauce like Daddies, but not A1, and thus came to my erroneous conclusion. I’ve never been a big fan of brown sauces in any case, but I liked HP BBQ sauce when I discovered it and still use it for summer cook outs.
@@alexrafe2590 If it’s any consolation to you tomato ketchup , which we now use everywhere , does appear to be American probably from the early 1800s .
However originally it was actually a Chinese fish sauce which was brought in by sailors and in the UK it was actually a mushroom sauce .
Edit : Oh and I forgot to mention the original American recipe from the early 1800s actually had brandy in it
Oh I wasn’t bothered about my mistake regarding the origins of A1@@steveosborne2297 You live and learn. I was glad you were able fill me in how things really came about in terms of brown sauce. I had heard some bits and pieces about the origins of ketchup, notably that it wasn’t originally tomato based. I remember looking at the etymology of the word in the dictionary many years ago and seeing that it was ascribed to a Malaysian word. It’s apparently been used as a condiment sauce in various forms going back quite a long time ago. I think the British had a big hand in spreading its use around the Pacific rim.
What you call gravy we usually call sauce. Like tomato sauce, white sauce etc
Where you stopped the video at Daddy's sauce (around 24:08), the presenter looked a bit like John Travolta I think it was the smile. 🤣
When I was training in College train alongside professional Chefs, we where always told that if you use good ingredients you do not need to disguise poor quality ingredients by using all these sauces the only things I do use is Heinz Piccalilli and only occasionally , plus Pickled Beetroot and only on a sandwich. I was born in the 1930's started school in January 1939 aged m 4 years and from 1940's when our food was rationed, we had to be very inventive
We are a family of 7 in the UK. We use Baked beans to fill out recipes. Adding them to Stews, Spagetti Bolognese, Chilli-con-carni etc...😃
My Mum did that with chilli too !! I think she forgot to put the beans in a collinder to wash the sauce off . Not nice at all .
Having said that , I once worked in an expensive restaurant where tinned ravioli was washed off and a new sauce added . The customers really loved it .
Colombo would not be impressed .
Cottage pie 🥧
Another great addition to meals is Iceland meat balls… Exactly the same as the favourite IKEA ones £5 for a big bag … Great in the air fryer with chips… A meal in 20 mins
Can you explain what BAKED BEANS actually are ?
Very few people actually know -
and not likely that even one in a thousand people will know and be able
to define what EGGS actually are.
Ask them and see how confused they become because they fo not know
'the answer to this simple question.
When one cannot define what an egg is and explain it shows how poorly
the people are educated by the CORP[ORATE INDOCTRINATION system
known commonly as SCHOOL - that produces ignorance and obedient
disciples of the CORPORATE GOVERNMENT religion.
The people do not have freedom -
They are about as free as free-range chickens
That kind of freedom is an illusion
UKs fave gravy is bistro, they also do a chicken one, delish!
Think you mean Bisto mate.
@@Trident22 bloody typos! 🫣 thanks, I was thinking of Bisto Best. 😂😂
OXO for me.
Corn syrup vs sugar is not the point, but corn syrup in everything is. My family avoid most foods with any added sweetness, so fast foods are almost never part of our diet.
Golden syrup is the British substitute to corn syrup, which is gorgeous in pudding dishes, here in the UK. Salade cream is so nice, I hope you have a chance to try it since you uploaded this video 😄Piccalilli, is often eaten with the classic pork pie, well it was in our household, as a kid and still to this day! I'm not too keen on the Heinz piccalilli, as I find that one a bit sweet.
Heinz are definitely the standard for baked beans. Back in the 70s there was a massive advertising campaign with the jingle "'A million housewives every day, open a can of beans and say Beanz Meanz Heinz!!!". I still recall it so I guess it was effective.
Awww you two are so cute together. Trust me the food here is a lot better than you might think. Fun to watch though. Put those beans on hot buttered toast :)
Makes me laugh when people say "gross" "I think I'm going to be sick" at mayo and ketchup mixed together - but that combo is the foundations for many sauces the biggest being the sauce for Prawn Cocktail
H.P, salad cream and jam, were the best fillings for a "Playingout butty" Which was 2 slices of bread with whatever we had but my favourite was salad cream, These were made in the seconds we had, whilst running in for a wee lol

The prices in your Kroger Supermarket are heartbreakingly expensive, even for non-imported items.
I am more interested in the ingredients. Most bottled sauses include a lot of rubbish! I flavour my own dishes as I eat, with salt, pepper and various fresh or dried spices.
Your pronunciation of Worcester and Lea & Perrins was perfect 🤌
Beanz meanz Heinz! As they said, an advertising campaign from the 80s. Love beans on toast 😋
I can't stand salad cream, but it's like Marmite, you love it or you don't. I prefer mayo in general and balsamic with olive oil and lemon with black pepper on salad.
I will fight you for Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce (pronounced Woos-ter-sha) for cooking or cheese on toast. And HP sauce is 'The Daddy' of all sauces - I have it with bacon sarnies on white bread only, any other bread it's mayo for me!
I'm off to make cheese on toast with Lea & Perrins right now 😋
Back in my youth, many years ago, Heinz Salad Cream sandwiches literally kept me alive. I was very poor back then.
When I was a student in the early eighties the only thing we had left to eat one time was pasta and salad cream, so that’s what we had!
@@gjames7798 And I bet it was yummy. Its amazing how good food tastes when you're hungry. 🤪
With crisps in.
I would have died, back in my youth my first taste of salad cream made me vomit and since then the smell has made me retch
Re salad cream : my mum always used it to make potato salad , and I still do at 68 YO . You have to put it on HOT potatoes , add spring onions . Scotch egg or ham with mustard , a couple of tomatoes served alongside , also pickled beetroot if you like ! LOL .
Sounds great to us!!
Oh I know! My mother puts mustard in potato salad, whereas my late husband put salad dressing in it, he took so much time perfecting it...I miss his cooking! But very informative video ladies!!!
Coleslaw made with lettuce and salad cream instead of cabbage and mayo.
Please make some for me it sounds delicious lol
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow I saw that Bob Dylan likes some British soap operas (Corry) and sitcoms .. I think he would like "Detectorists" . Can you recommend it to him ?
Hello Natasha and Debbie. Years ago we used to get Heinz Tinned sponge puddings. You boiled them in the tin for ages, very handy before micro wave machines available. I checked with my on-line grocery store, Sainsbury’s, and they are not sold any more. We used to have them on Scout camp. Easy to cook and as they were tinned didn’t go off. Chocolate sponge and mixed fruit sponges were the best.
As a thought, before comparing any foods within Europe to those of the USA. In Europe Food Regulations are very tough. In the USA they are written for Big Business. Thats why even Mc Donalds tastes different over here, half of what they are allowed to put in their burgers in the USA is banned in Europe. We are not allowed "Enhancers" or "Tenderisers" or masses of Sugar or Growth Hormones or excessive Antibiotics. Our chickens are not washed in chlorine to make them edible and our eggs are fresh-so dont need to be in a fridge. Americans, who have lived in countries within Europe for a year or more, even though they eat the same amount of food, loose weight. Some American women have said their periods have changed. So what you are eating in Europe is REAL food, not a tin or box of chemicals. So LADIES ENJOY OUR FOOD!
As a British " child of the 70's" in Shropshire we never ever used the word ketchup. Back then in our house , it was always referred to as "red sauce" ( as opposed to the alternative " brown sauce" ! )Mayonnaise was unheard of back then in our home - we only ever had salad cream! I hope you both had a lovely Christmas and Happy New Year!
I guess you are from the Midlands or North of England . A Scot living in London , I usually hear 'tomato sauce' or 'ketchup' .
Same regarding mayonnaise when I grew up . Love it now !
Yes, I was from Shropshire!
I grew up in the North in the 70s. It was always referred to as 'ketchup'.
I'm 35 but didn't try Mayo until I was like 18. Never looked back!
When it comes to brown sauces, I prefer Daddies to HP. I think it's because it is slightly less sweet and more vinegary.
By all means give salad cream a try. I prefer to dress salad with oil or vinagrette, but if you like mayo on salad you may well enjoy it.
Personally, i much prefer Branston baked beans over Heinz any day!
Scrambled eggs on nutty wholemeal toast with a drizzle of hp sauce... great breakfast
Ketchup, baked beans on toast with a cuppa tea, salad cream but none Heinz, think I’m made of money!!! 😂

Salad cream goes great on chips and any bird sarnie (chicken, turkey etc), and of course salad lol. It’s also quite nice with a hard boiled egg sarnie (personal opinion)
In Australia, I used to eat Heinz big red tomato soup on the regular; these days I use it to flavour things such as lasagne’s or macaroni and cheese or certain macaroni and cheeses. Because it’s a flavour boost.
We have Heinz tomato sauce, which I don’t know the difference between Ketchup and sauce if any.
We have baked beans and spaghetti from Heinz. I’ve seen the HP sauce in supermarkets here in Australia and I’ve seen them a lot of the basic Heinz products.
The reason that beans is spelt with the Z Is because the catchphrase was:- beanz meanz Heinz. A weird sort of clown words. In fact, they still use that catchphrase here in Australia
If you want the ketchup out of the glass bottle, you tap the 57 on the neck.
Any UK mustard has to compete with Coleman's and any vinegar has to compete with Sarson's. Gravy competes with OXO or Bisto unless you make it yourself from the juices of the meat you're cooking. Branston pickle is the benchmark here of pickle.
Beanz meanz Heinz!
OK, I guess I'm triggered by Heinz as I keep commenting, but Heinz is NOT the "Gold standard for Baked Beans in the UK", not anymore, sorry! It is probably still the best selling but in my opinion (& I think a lot of other people in the UK are increasingly in agreement with me on this) Branstons Baked Beans are superior and should be considered the "Gold Standard for Baked Beans" if there is such a thing (there is, I'm certain of it)
Nope, Branson beans taste week and wishy washy to me, Heinz is the gold standard for me. If I couldn't get Heinz, I'd go without.
@@orwellboy1958 I agree, Heinz’s better…. Nice to also add a bit of tomato ketchup, stir and heat.
Any American given Brits advice on what to eat and what not to eat for breakfast, is laughable.
Best of the UK:
Ketchup, Brown, Salad Cream, Baked Beans, Soup : Heinz
Mustard : Colemans
BBQ : Tiptree
Mayonnaise : Hellmans
Vinegar : Sarsons
Worcestershire : Lea & Perrins
Pickle : Branstons
Gravy : Bisto
I buy the Hienz truffle mayo. It's difficult to find. So when I track it down I buy a few bottles. I like all things truffle. Not a lot of people like the flavour of truffle which is a kind of strong mushroom flavour. Real truffle is very expensive so cheap truffle flavoured things tend to be mixed witrh mushroom. I also like Hienz tomato soup, spagetti and they used to do a thing called sandwich spread. It was a tangy mayo with chopped veg that included pickled gherkins.
As a matter of interest, it was a tradition in my partner’s family to have a good steak meal for birthdays and to make a steak sauce they mixed steak juices with tomato sauce and brown sauce in the frying pan. When I was made aware of this I tried it and after tasting it I now think this is a really good sauce to go with the steak and a few other things as well. It’s easy to make and tastes surprisingly delicious, you should try it if you like steak.
Happy new year and May next year be better than the last.
Cheers girls
The problem with Heinz beans is they broadened the range so you now can get Chilli, Barbeque and Curry Heanz beans but they discontinued the Heanz curried beans ( that used to come in the small tins ) that had a far superior taste and were a real treat. They also discontinued the Heanz potato salad ( again in a small tin ), I miss them both badly.
Heinz have been making Barbeque beans in the UK since the 1970s
@@georgebarnes8163 Yes I remember them but Different recipe like the Curried to Curry beans.
I didn't like the curry beans but I also find beans bland so I melt some butter in a pan, add my own home made 10 spice garam masala, a bit of turmeric, a bit of chilli pickle or powder or hot sauce, paprika, black pepper and serve with a mountain of grated cheese on top
This is why HEINZ Is so much better in the UK then anywhere else in Europe and possibly the rest of the world,
A cornerstone of Wigan's economy for decades, the sprawling food processing plant is the largest in Europe and the largest Heinz facility in the world, with its illuminated '57' sign a landmark to those passing Wigan on the M6 near Orrell, between Greater Manchester & Liverpool in the UK,

Salad cream is typically the poor relation of mayo. But secretly most people love it. Total snobbery 😂
I don't know why he says Piccalilli is an "old person's condiment". Sure, it isn't what you necessarily eat when you're a teenager and you only care about fast food, but I wouldn't say "only people over 50 like it", that is probably just his experience. I love Piccalilli and I'm not 50, lol! It was certainly more common in cafes and sandwich shops if you went back 50+ years, so that might be why he has the perception of it being unpopular with younger people, but it is still quite common in people's homes. I'm not sure about Heinz's Piccalilli though, I tend to go for one that is a bit more fancy, lol
Piccalilli is freaking great! Guy clearly is wrong
They make a mustard pickle as well which is more of a condiment than a sauce.
Wow, international foods are expensive. Those beans are between $1-$2 here in Australia...but some UK things are expensive here too.
In u.k heinz beans are £3.00 for 4 cans . International food sold in u.k are more expensive
Heinz is an American food product. John Kerry ,US special envoy was actually married to the Heinz heiress ,Theresa Heinz Kerry till she passed from cancer.
They are best known in the US for ketchup and Heinz 57 sauce
Piccalilli is amazing on cheese sandwiches if you fancy a change from Branston. Heinz used to be the king of beans, but nowadays I much prefer Branston's beans as the sauce is thicker and has a stronger tomato taste. Probably the thing from Heinz I have most of though are their soups, especially Chicken, Tomato and Mulligatawny flavours.
Agree on the Branstons beans!
I love the Course Piccalilli with the chopped cauli and Gherkins in on a nice Cheese sarnie. Mulligatawny Soup is getting hard to find now, I absolutely love the stuff. I like it poured over some Chips in a bowl.
I like TESCOS own Beans there a quarter of the price of Heinz but just as tasty
I like piccalilli with cod fish fingers...yum.
I agree about Branston being better beans.
I'm still worried about the UK loostening food restrictions and becoming more like the US.
But we are not !? Nothing has changed... Please name ANY one product that has, I'm sure you can't, so stop worrying.
@@stewedfishproductions7959 Not yet ...
@@thomassharmer7127 Before joining and getting further into the EU, British standards were already regularly higher than Europe. It took them a long time to catch up.
So let's not pretend the worry that we need them to keep standarda high is anything, at least right now, other than childish paranoia with no basis in reality.
Of course that doesn't mean it won't happen. But the EUs current situation doesn't mean it won't happen there, just like the level of corruption recently found the EU would have been silly paranoia not long ago but ended up being a thing.
You’ve not been paying attention to the many EU food scandals, such as horse meat in beef burgers. It’s too big to monitor so many countries and the corruption in individual EU countries. Our standards are far higher.
@@dee2251 ah yes, i remember, my lidl pony
'Daddy's Brown Sauce' is really good. Branston Beans is the go-to beans. Low sugar anything is what we have to eat. 😊
UK here. Ketchup and mayo combined is basically thousand island dressing or a 'prawn cocktail sauce'.
Salad cream is ok when you have no mayo. I often mix the two together though. Actually just last night i had salad and mixed in a bit of salad cream. It's good sometimes in a cheese sandwich or chicken sandwich. I tend to usually prefer mayo though.
DO NOT put salad cream on a burger! Use mayo instead.
Recently i got some 'Baconaisse' ... from the foodbank ... bacon flavoured mayo i assume. I have absolutely no idea what to do with it! 🤔
I don't use many Heinz products but a must have in my press is Heinz Salad Cream. The one and only original. Makes sandwiches, salads and dips just fandabbydozy.
Heinz = horrible, over-sweet muck, whether it be sold in the US or the UK.
Salad cream on chips (fries) is just mwa! 👌🏻
Hi Nat and Debs - Made in NZ and Aus - Heinz seriously good original mayonnaise - made with free range eggs - from the bottle label - very good thick mayo goes beautifully on fried battered fish - but save the vinegar for the chips. BUT ordinary Heinz mayo for salads and Branston Pickle on cold meats, ham etc. HP sauce is for BBQ's and fry-ups. Gravy is made from the roast meat juices with maybe an Oxo cube crumbled into it plus Bisto to thicken and add more flavour. Thanks for making my appetite start up and it's not yet dinner time! Thanks for the very interesting demo - Martin
If you like Tuna Natasha, then add some salad cream to tuna mix together with some black pepper, it is absolute perfection!! You can have on jacket potatoes, Salad, or you can even put in a sandwich 🥪 I love Tuna (with salad cream not mayo) sandwiches as a kid! 😋
Just a disclaimer I'm talking about mixing canned Tuna, not steaks of Tuna lol
Yes delicious
Hey from the UK 👋😅 Great fun video . I love Heinz products becuz I was bought up on them even though they can be more expensive brand. I love Baked Beans but I ONLY eat them pipping Hot like they burning your mouth from the heat. For me they taste nasty cold or lukewarm. I love them with a splash of HP Brown sauce or melting cheese on top.
You just need to try English mustard now. You just have to shovel it down in large quantities like ketchup
From the UK: I agree with Natasha: I hate ketchup and always use mayo with fries and burgers. With salad cream, I use this with turkey sandwiches, mayo with chicken. Salad cream is really good on a ham salad. The garlic sauce is great with kebab meat, which is very popular. I love beans for breakfast. Heinz soups are great.
Couple of things:
- We have other brand options for vinegar which is why we don't have a Heinz option.
- Salad Cream is MUCH better than Mayo for things like Tuna Salad, Egg Salad, adding to Mash potatoes, having in a ham sandwich. If you mix it 50/50 with Ketchup you have a really good, simple Marie Rose sauce for prawn cocktail.
- Heinz Cream of Tomato soup is a British staple and a go to soup when you're ill. And we put Hula Hoops crisps in it...🙈 😂
Oh and A1 Steak Sauce is actually British, not American 😉
Yes those are glass bottles :) i guess the problem we have here in the UK is that we have companies who specialise in specific products such as Colmans who i go to for mustards etc, and Bisto for our gravy's which are more popular than the Heinz products, that said the Heinz beans and the range of soups are awesome as is the huge range of baby foods. good video lasses.
It was nice to see you ladies out and about in your local store. Interesting to see the different options available in each country. Something funny I've noticed when Americans try baked beans on toast is they pick up the bit of toast to eat them, instead of using a knife and fork. I like cheese on toast then add beans on, nom nom nom.
I love salad cream. I mix it with mayo for salads, sandwiches and a dip for fries.
Gosh, I hope you two were OK during the great storm. News of which has even made it downunder (nz anyway!). Happy new year to you both- thanks for all your shows on youtube- I never miss one :-)
We are finally thawing out!! Even have thunderstorm warnings for next week!!
I use mayonnaise to make potato salad and coleslaw for sandwiches and to put on the side of a salad I use salad cream. There are still an awful lot of foods that are not allowed in to Britain because of chemicals which are banned in the UK. Some of them are carcinogenic. When I went to Australia my auntie said load your suitcase up with baked beans because they’re not the same abroad. The first thing she did the next day for breakfast beans on toast for everybody😂😂
If they are carcinogenic we don't want them, ever, thank you. My first husband died from that terrible disease; not nice to watch.
I'm pretty certain that Salad Cream was created by the UK Heinz company during WWI due to the shortage of eggs.
It's a mayonnaise substitute but a little bit more vinegary and substantially less eggy.
Up safe is great mixed in with the beans, served piping hot on toast with a little mature cheddar grated over! So totally yum!!
For some reason hp sauce auto corrected to up safe!!😂
Sorry about that!
Don't much care for UK Heinz beans. They haven't got the sauce flavour right - it's just too bland. I have to add HP and tomato sauces to make them edible. Branston are the only make I can eat and enjoy straight from the can. Cheers girls, love your shows.
My Mum craved picilli pickle (the "old people's pickle!")when she was pregnant with me. Made me smile...thank you . Lost her & my Dad in 2020. Hope 2023 is happy & peaceful 🏴🌻
Salad Cream.. yeah, you'll probably like it. 👍🏻
The song at the end was 'A Little Bit of Cucumber'. It's a very old cockney Music Hall song from the early 1900s.
I think most families in the U.K. have some Heinz products in their larders/fridges, I'm with Natasha on the ketchup topic, I cannot abide the stuff! Do love my HP sauce though, cannot believe all the BBQ sauce combos you have there, (most of which sound pretty awful to be honest!). Good , fun video! Happy New Year from me and mine to you and yours! x
Yeah we have never nor ever met anyone who uses Heinz BBQ sauces. We have soooo many BBQ sauces in America it's nearly impossible to believe!
@@TheNatashaDebbieShow I take it that those sauces are as bad as I thought!!😂
@@Blahshog we have never nor would ever try them. So, yeah probably
The only tomato/brown sauce worth buying is Wilkins tiptree ones from Essex. If anyone brings other brands home they go straight in the bin.
Because of nandos piri piri is big in Britain. Have you tried either. If not you should.
HI NATASHA, HI DEBBIE
DEBBIE HERE FROM SOUTH WALES
🎄 ✨️. 🎈 🎄 ✨️. 🎈 🎄 is ✨️. 🎈 🎄 ✨️. 🎈
Hope you both had a nice peaceful Christmas, and that all you wished for came true.
We do not have the gravy over here, well where I live in South Wales i have never ever seen it, I did not even know that Heinz made gravy.
The closest thing that I can think off that we get to that gravy is Bisto gravy granules and Oxo granules of all meat flavours including vegetable. They are granules that you add boiling water to to make the instant gravy.
Oh lordy, I think I am addicted to Tommy sauce of any brand, I just ♥️ 🍅 sauce I will eat tomato sauce with just about anything.
Here in the UK high fructose cirn syrup is also known as isoglucose, maize syrup and glucose-fructose syrup.
The Heinz Big Soups are so called because the pieces of veg and meat are cut into nice big chunks just as you would chop the veg in your own home making soup and it is very yummy.
Thank you! Hope you did as well!
Natasha how dare you call our beans on toast...🤣🤣🤣 oft with your head.🥰
Branston baked beans took the number 1 spot from Heinz.
Segue, Branston pickle infused homemade sausage rolls and Branston beans with a sprinkling of grated Cheddar cheese is divine.
Hey guys, great video!
Natasha - I am a Worcester lass, born and bred. You pronounced Lea ("Lee") and Perrins correctly!
Also, fun fact, we have the 57 on our bottles of tomato sauce (ketchup), but I've never seen an actual "57" sauce that was mentioned in the video.
I'd highly recommend Branston Pickle btw. I always have cheese and pickle sandwiches, and they are absolutely lush!
Thanks again both, and an early Happy New Year to you both 😊🙏
I always thought that "57" referred to the number of food varieties that Heinz produced . Baked beans being one . Will do some research on that !
@@petertennent9604 I had also heard the term "Heinz 57" so I looked it up on Wikipedia. Apparently it was purely marketing! They didn't have 57 varieties at the time they started using the slogan, and now have something like 122 varieties?
Tl;Dr My whole childhood was a lie 😅😭
Branston pickle is the best
I’m a ketchup user, Branston pickle, love mayo, salad cream recently discovered BBQ sauce. Always thought I wouldn’t like it, omg how wrong.
You two, it's 7:30 am and now I'm craving KFC with barbecue baked beans. Well I suppose that's lunch sorted.
😂😂
Salad cream absolutely great on just that Salads!
Hi Ladies, firstly Happy New Year to you both. I`m pretty sure, Baked Beans on Toast took off as a popular meal in the U.K. in the `60`s. Mainly as a cheap meal for students living away from home on a tight budget, for the first time. I know it cropped up in some `60`s comedy shows about students at the time.
U.K. missed the only one I occasionally use which is HP Fruity Sauce which is a fruitier brown sauce.
