I can't find anything similar here, dye and fragrance free, that doesn't cost a bomb. Have you seen any Simple-like products here at a decent price?

Thankyou!!!
Just don't get drunk and mix the sauce and the shampoo up.

Worse bacon sarnie I ever tasted.

Stater Bros have a small section of Brit foods including brown sauce.

We buy, (Thinks its the small bottle) in Publix FL, $5.99. Way overpriced, but got have it. IN NYC, Food Emporium (A&P) Brit section sold it or Brit stores.

Also seen it in some Chinese, super markets.

HP also contains HFCS. Glucose-fructose syrup is the same thing as HFCS under a different name. HP here in the UK at least has Glucose-fructose syrup as the third ingredient.

We've found Lea & Perrins Steak Sauce preferable to A-1 and a good stand-in for HP or Daddy's. Does have HFCS as 2nd ingredient but tastes better. L&P kind of hard to find around Memphis area - had to stock up in other cities when on holiday. Publix a good source in Nashville.

Oh thank you!! I'll have a look this weekend.
I did look for Lea & Perrins steak sauce yesterday but didn't find it yet. I'll keep looking.
Or I'll do some amazon shopping because now I wish I had some Bisto gravy too. The list keeps getting longer of "stuff I wish I'd brought with me". :-)
