HP in a can?
I just introduced my S/O to HP Sauce and he's completely obsessed. Now, I'll admit, it is my favorite sauce this side of Sriracha, but man, we've been on a mission for weeks. We finally found HP at our local World Market, but I keep getting links and pictures of these canned HP meals in my email from him.
Has anyone ever had any of these? The Full Monty, All-Day Breakfast or something. I'm wondering if they are as horrid as the photos look, but he won't rest until he tastes them. Any ideas where to purchase these in the States so he'll shut up? We had Snakebites and scotch eggs for weeks when he "discovered" those. next on the list... deep-fried Mars Bars. My cholesterol levels are jumping for joy. Whoo hoo!

And HP's Full Monty' which squeezes beans, sausages, potato chunks, lamb cutlets, mushrooms & bacon all into the same can. HP's 'Omelette Chips n' Beans' - that's omelette, chips & beans all in the same can! HP Baked beans are pretty easy to find - -my googling is failing me on finding these other products.. just that the review says that they exist... even some of the british food sites don't have them....

Heh, heh... Thanks, Maleficent. I agree with the reviewers on that site, British beans just aren't all that tasty to me, either. Too ketchup-y. I'm a down-home, Bush's Vegetarian Beans girl, myself. Thanks for lookin' though. Why you'd put all that stuff in a can is beyond me. They even have one with Scotch Eggs in it, too!
This is the site he keeps sending to me. http://www.whom.co.uk/sugar/hpcan.htm

Going on product names: this site:
http://www.britishcornershop.co.uk/d...nited%20States has The Big BBQ Beans, Bombay Balti Beans but under a different company name... This site: http://www.hotcan.com/index.php?page=cans&productID=10 Lists a lot of the flavors - ina pretty cool self heating can (but doesnt tell where to buy them) it's also got a different company name This site: http://www.britsuperstore.com/acatal...ked_Beans.html has the sausages 'n' wedges (it just seems odd that the spelling of the product would be identical on two different companies products: but the company is crosse and blackwell.. These things just look tooo disgusting to eat... good luck finding them...

Never found one.
Nothing like rubbing it in, Daniel! I'd pay to have those shipped over just to tease him. Luckily we've backed off the Irish Breakfasts... my arteries couldn't handle the puddings. I've got a wicked craving for shepard's pie with HP right about now... and curry fries.
