    Nah...

    Chef Red Sauce on Chipper chips.

    YR Brown Sauce on Fresh Cod. (from the chipper too).

    We used to have Kandee 1 litre red sauce at home. (thats cause there was millions of us and it was cheap). Horrible stuff altogether.

    Red sauce is really good for helping to prevent prostrate cancer lads..just thought I'd share that little bit of info.

    Is it the tomatoes ?

    I hope so cause I hate tomato ketchup but I love tomatoes.

    Big fan of Brown sauce.

    Two slices of toast with 3 rashers and a load of brown sauce can't be beaten :)

    Three pages in and not one Intermission reference.

    Shocking.


    Also - I wouldn't call a place that has ketchup bottles on the table a restaurant, wouldn't it be more a cafe?

    I love a squirt of brown sauce on a plate of shepherd's pie or a cheese sandwich, rarely use the red.

    :)

    Ketchup contains concentrated amounts of the antioxidant Lycopene. Its present in tomato based sauces like on pizza and in pasta sauces. More concentrated than in fresh tomatoes.

    "Research studies suggest that in the body, lycopene is deposited
    in the liver, lungs, colon, prostate gland and skin.
    A six year study at Harvard Medical School and Harvard School of Public Health showed reduced risk of prostate cancer in 47,000 men whose diets contained large quantities of lycopene."

    Reggae reggae sauce is an excellent alternative to ketchup or brown sauce. I'd rather give my money to Levi than to Heinz.

    Sauce etiquette says ketchup with a full Irish, burgers n chips, pasta. Brown sauce with steak, lamb, pork chops

    Brown sauce for the rasher sambos, ketchup for everything else

    Now, bs aside this actually led to a fistfight one night (lots of drink involved obviously), but which is better for ketchup. Heinz or Chef?
    If you say Chef you are correct and if you say Kandee then GTFO

    Brown Sauce, but it has to be Chef. The other stuff is rank. I love it with Mashed potato, beans (Heinz) and sausages cut up and mixed together. Brings me back to my childhood. Delicious with Fries too and in a corned beef sambo.

    Love BBQ sauce, but I can never get decent BBQ sauce in supermarkets.

    There must be a gap in the market for someone to make a good one.
