    Listen... do the Brits mind if I post in this thread? Both @Morrus and @Waller have gone out of their way to make me feel unwelcome here. The only reason I posted in the first place is because the thread was created, no one responded, and it was getting close to drifting onto the second page. I...

    Had to go look up Hendersons Relish. If I run across a bottle on my next trip to the grocery store, maybe I'll pick up a bottle. Is it the non-anchovy aspect that's a plus, or is it a flavour issue?
