More than 10 is a good score.
In years gone by, the dinner table was bland affair. Salt, vinegar, ketchup, HP – tasty, but lacking the kick that reduces men to tears. Fast forward from monochrome to 4k HD colour and all of that has changed.
Down our supermarkets aisles you can now find anything you desire – mild sauces, salty sauces, pepper-y sauces, sauces that scorch the top of your mouth, sauces transverse your airwaves like hot magma and vapourise your brain. The public’s sauce appetite knows no bounds.
