Pickle Original 720G

'Bring out the Branston'!

I’m an adventurous eater. I read that this is popular in the UK so I ordered a bottle to try it out. It is kind of like chutney. Sweet and sour with all sorts of veggies in the sauce. I made a grilled ham and cheese with this sauce inside. It was delicious. I will be researching other ways to utilize the sauce. My son in law is from Scotland and I actually bought it thinking he would love it too but he didn’t care for the flavor as a kid so his loss my gain!!

I heard about these and bought a jar. I heard they were pickles but I had my suspicions and thought, the crazy english probably call their chutney, pickles or we call our pickle chutney. Regardless, I like both and just bought on a whim. I like the really salty indian pickles too. Well it was a big jar of brown chunky "chutney" that you need a spoon to serve (no dirty finger pickles) and its actually really good. Im 23 year a vegan so no grody cheese sandwiches, no medieval type "food" choices for me like a few suggest but much preferred for some samosas and assorted indian foods. Most store bought chutneys are far too sweet but this does have a good balance of sour, sweet, and savory. Vote Bernie Sanders unless youre a billionaire or have no critical thinking skills. I am a branston pickle and I approve this message! Its really quite good regardless what it is.

Unfortunately mine arrived open as well. Luckily I was able to get a refund.

I got these for a British friend who was missing a bit of home. He seems to think these pickles are absolutely the best part of his childhood (I'm not sure what that says about his childhood exactly, but he grew up to be reasonably well adapted). He was absolutely delighted (!!!) to receive them. And I was glad to be able to get him something that pleased him so much.

I do love chuntney and this is very good except for the fact that it is so very salty. Had it been less salty I could have enjoyed it far more since I have to watch my salt intake.
