I Love the sweet/sour taste in GeneralNov 19, 2009
I have to say that I might be a biased customer, because I raised with this thing :) I used it for many recipes. It last for a long time and it is delivered in a glass container which is the cleanest way of saving food in my opinion.
Good sauce.........Jul 10, 2009
We have used this sauce for several years. It is not like any of the sauces made in the USA. A wonderful change from the sweet ketchup that most USA people love & use. HP sauce is for those who like a little more zap in & on the food. It is not like salsa or chili sauce with it's zap. A nice product, try it. It's not like A1 or Heinz 57 sauce either.

Simply the best!May 25, 2009
I first encountered HP sauce as one of the condiments on the table when I had my first English Breakfast at a B&B in the English Lake District. While I can't swear to it, I'll bet that HP sauce is as common as salt on British dining tables. And well it should, as it is the best choice, in my opinion, to put on any meat that requires a sauce rather than being eaten au natural.
The first person to review HP here mentioned that he was expecting something more like A-1 sauce. Well, different strokes for different folks. I am happy indeed that is DOESN'T resemble A1, being more mellow and fuller flavored. There was (and may still be) an HP STEAK Sauce, and that DID (to my disappointment) taste like A-1.
Despite it now being owned by Heinz, It is in my experience devilishly hard to find in the usual supermarket. That's why I plan to order some here from Amazon as soon as I finish this.
Try it, you may, like me, like it.

P.S. Marmite is definitely an acquired taste.

 From a Yank's prespective.Dec 20, 2008
After seeing this on every sitcom table in the UK I had to try it.
Made by everyone's favorite Ketchup King Heinz... HP Sauce pushes the vinegar to the forefront when compared to Ketchup. Your mouth twinges with the tang of vinegar upon eating this... then you taste the sweetness from the tomato/sugars. There was also a subtle sweet taste that was somewhat different then Ketchup... which I think is most likely from the dates looking over the ingredients.
I was really expecting somthing more like A1 then Ketchup... but I really don't know where I picked up that preconception. Overall I enjoyed it; people into vinegar chips or whatever would really get a kick out of this.
