Vague history

I've made a few changes, but the history section is still very vague. When was it invented, what was it called before the name was changed to HP Sauce, when did it first carry an image of the Houses of Parliament? Obscurasky (talk) 08:29, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Why is the article so vague? Might it have something to do with the activities of the deletionists who plague WikipediA? NRPanikker (talk) 17:48, 8 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

It's been improved since I wrote that. Obscurasky (talk) 18:47, 10 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Is HP s sause vegan?

The label only says 'suitable for vegetarians' - so it might be, but would require a citation to be included in the article. Obscurasky (talk) 18:56, 5 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Originally British but no longer

Now made in the EU, in The Netherlands. JazHaz (talk) 14:37, 10 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, tricky one that. Even though it's made abroad, it is made predominately for the British market (and other countries formerly of British influence) so I would say it is still a British sauce.

No tomatoes

Every brown sauce label I read does not include tomatoes or tomato paste. The recipes I have seen and made do not contain any tomato products. How has this become so widely misreported? 68.32.128.244 (talk) 18:45, 18 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Not sure if this is a prank, but I've just read the ingredients on my bottle of HP Sauce, and the main ingredient is listed as tomatoes. Obscurasky (talk) 19:52, 19 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
