The dried stuff is pretty minging though, unless you add fresh/dried fruit and a load of booze to it and let it soak a while.

The bottled stuff, some have a lot of HFCS, so worth checking out.

Though a day after Christmas, that stuff is about 75% off and keeps for years

Mrs P buys jars (Bob: is that what you mean by "bottled"?) of it in the local grocery (not a British section), though why they stock it and who else buys it, I can't imagine, because I have never heard of anyone else using it?

Like tomato ketchup, without the tomato flavor! My hubby loves it, it is one of the only things he asks for when I visit the UK... the other thing is Bassets Licorice Allsorts.

Central Market in Poulsbo WA has it, along with Cadbury's chocolate buttons! Also in Fred Myer's. I think Cadbury's chocolate tastes different over here...
