HP sauce, from the looks of it.

Never heard of it. What's it taste like?

It's like a fruitier version of A1 sauce. Think ketchup with dates, tamarind, and vinegar.

I'm not a big fan of it. If you're looking for a good sauce to try, go for hoisin instead.

Kind of like A-1, I think. Worcestershire-y.

I snoozed and lost.

EH's description is accurate. It's a standard topping for fish & chips in many parts of the country, and the subject of fierce rivalry between brown sauce fanatics and those who prefer ketchup.

HP is good brown sauce but 'Daddies' brown sauce is better imho.

Lea and Perrins rules over all.

I am intrigued. I must peruse these exotic sauces.

Granted Stanley, Lea & Perrins is the mutt's nuts but you'd almost never put it on chips, unlike brown sauce. I love some Worcestershire sauce on a grilled cheese though!

In Scotland the east coasters also have their own take on brown 'chippy sauce' which is much more tart/acidic and a bit less viscous than HP/Daddies sauces. Fiercely guarded 'secret' recipes with chippies all having their own secret ingredient ratios etc are all part of the traditional takeout culture there.

Quality tartar sauce on fries is better than all of this.

Tartare sauce is nice but nah, not even close if you're raised in the UK ;)

Gmork, don't let EH lead you down the rabbit hole of exotic sauces. Sure, it starts with hoisin, just a little at first. Then before you know it you're putting it on macaroni. Then, you really start hitting the hard stuff.

Jar's label and description in English? No, that won't do. Seal broken? Fuck it, good. Nothing is ever salty or sweet enough. I don't recognize myself anymore.

I missed the boat but pickapeppa sauce can be chugged directly from the bottle

This movie rules, I saw it a LOT in middle school and a few times as an adult and it's still great. Ridiculous and uneven but in the best ways. It's like ET meets Rock N Roll Nightmare.

I'm glad Mike's not on this one, I no longer trust him to appreciate this since it came out that he hates Escape From New York.

I think he got lost on the river of irony to the point where he can't enjoy anything good anymore.

Maybe, his big criticism is that it's boring and the action scenes aren't that good, which more implies that he missed the fact that IT IS A COMEDY.

how is it even possible to hate Escape From New York? :O

Yeah, watch their escape from new york re:view and try to fathom his opinions about it.

Mike really is the Ebert of his generation.

i still haven't seen Gate 2, I knew better then and I don't have the heart for it now.

Worse than House 2?

House 2 was at least a fun movie in it's own right. Not as good as 1, but good in it's own way I guess. Gate 2 is just dumb, IMO. The fact the storyline is basically the same as Hobgoblins (creatures make fantasies come true which then go horribly wrong) it's definitely a negative.

Is that the one where dude wishes for a car that ends up turning into a giant mound of shit? I think I have seen it.
