    Bacon sandwiches require HP Sauce. Red is only acceptable if HP is not available. I assume that HP is what you are referring to here as “brown sauce” – I, like all right-thinking people, refuse to recognise the existence of any other type of “brown sauce”.

    You’re only adding Worcester Sauce becuase the food has no flavour – it needs cooking in. Worcester is NOT a table sauce – it lives in the cupboard with my spices – i.e. for COOKING with.

    And while we’re at it – ALL sauces except vinegar live in the fridge.

    Worcester doesn’t (and isn’t vinegar) so isn’t a sauce. QED!

    But oven chips? Has to be salt, vinegar, HP sauce, tomato sauce, and proper mayonnaise.

    Presumably to hide the fact that they taste like crap. Get yourself a chip pan and a potato peeler, woman.

    HP = Brown, yes. I was trying to bring in the people that buy cheap, supermarket versions.

    I would only ever buy HP sauce.

    only ever Heinz Tomato Ketchup – nothing else ever. That burger van catering red sauce shit that is just red vinegar would be banned if I were PM

    Blimey Dr, you caught yourself out there – “Worcester sauce lives in my cupboard with spices” – then “all sauces except vinegar live in the fridge”!

    For someone with OCD tidiness, you’re a bit sauce-confused.*

    *Unless your cupboard is a fridge of course.

    Oooh – I’d forgotten Tabasco.

    It kind of falls into the Worcester syndrome though – it’s an ingredient, not a table sauce.

    Having said that I do like pepping up soups with Encona.

    Am I the only person who like red and brown sauce on a bacon sauasage and egg sarnie. yum….

    oneone – it is confusing.

    But I use Worcester sauce as that’s it’s name. It’s not a table sauce though. I’ll write to Lee & Perrins and ask for it to be renamed Worcester Flavour Compensator For People Who Can’t Cook.

    Bacon Sandwich – Red sauce only

    Fish Finger Sandwich – Brown sauce only

    You got these the wrong way round

    Are these Northern or Southern rules?

    Northern :-

    Bacon sandwich – Brown
    Sausage sandwich – Brown
    Cheese pie – Brown
    Chips – Red

    Unklebuk – NEVER mix sauces.

    Bacon, Sausage and Egg requires no sauce. The egg should be properly fried such that the yolk provides moisture.

    Any sauce would overpower the other flavours.

    In fact mixing sauces of any kind is not to be recommended.

    Impossible to make homemade thousand island dressing with doing so.

    and I prefer my tuna mayonaisse, with a bit of salad cream and sometimes horseradish.

    Organic – hmmmm, that’s a difficult one. You are using a sauce as an ingredient. It’s not like you’ve put mayo and tomato and tabasco onto your prawns. You’ve selected them as ingredients and mixed them into a new single sauce.

    However, it’s still wrong. Thousand Island is vile.

    There are alternatives.

    no no no, bacon butties need mayo & brown sauce

    Mayo is the work of the devil and needs to be sent to the same hell where marmite belongs!

    Mrs Toast – Marmite is NOT a sauce and is a PERFECT food substance.

    It is out of scope of these discussions.

    Thai sweet chilli sauce is not only addictive but a superb addition to coloured, not white, cheddar sandwiches or fish finger sandwiches.

    Bacon and egg sarnie has red OR brown sauce. Both? Are you clinically insane. Nothing supports both except a burger. Which generally copes with a multiple sauce approach far better than the butty.

    I repeat yesterdays assertion that fish finger butties must have red sauce and a cheese single. The cheese single must be of the lowest quality available. The sort that is labelled ‘may contain cheese’

    Bacon butty – no butter/spread and brown sauce only.

    Fishfinger butty – brown sauce only, spread recommended.

    Chicken breast butty – brown sauce

    Cheese on toast – Worcester sauce

    Burger – mix mayo, English mustard and ketchup

    Sausage butty – brown sauce

    Hot dog in a finger roll – ketchup and French’s mustard.

    Brown sauce on bread is a sandwich in its own right.

    Corned beef butty – brown sauce and a bit of English mustard

    C’est tout. J’ai fini.

    HP = Brown, yes. I was trying to bring in the people that buy cheap, supermarket versions.

    I once ate at a caff that had refilled HP bottles with some sort of vile brown sauce-style condiment-type fluid, presumably in the deluded hope that their customers couldn’t tell the difference. Why would anyone do such a thing? WHY?

    Love marmite too… makes not note to go to dinner with mrs toast, I can tell it just wouldn’t work.

    Tobasco – brilliant and can be used as an ingredient or a sauce.

    Levi Roots Reggae Sauce is also awesome… I suspect it would be brilliant on a cheddar cheese (with raw onion and MAYO) sarnie – must try that later

    Have we discussed the bread issue? No butty has ever benefited from being on brown bread EVER!

    Brown bread is purely put on the shelves for the girl in the office who is always on a diet but never loses any weight. Therefore it fulfills a useful social function. But that, I’m afraid, is it!!!

    I must be reet posh, I have my bacon sarmies with Avocado, rocket, tomato sauce and mayo, on posh brown bread of course.

    Neither red nor brown sauce (whether branded or cheap supermarket lookalikes) have a place in my kitchen.

    Hellmans Full Fat Mayonnaise rules – with salad, salad sandwiches, smoked salmon sandwiches (with garlic and black pepper), on beans, in soups, on roast veggies.

    Colmans English Mustard – for fried eggs, fried egg sarnies (I like to tinker with amount, the correct amount is so it almost, but not quite, makes me sneeze).

    Otherwise Thai Sweet Chilli dipping sauce – also good with fried eggs, any kind of fried or baked veg.

    Hungry now – good job it’s almost lunchtime.

    Binners – Bacon and Egg needs NO sauce.

    The egg yolk should still be fluid and would be overwhelmed by red or brown.

    Gee-Jay – it’s a pet hate of mine when crap cafes do that. HP is the only true brown sauce. Anything else is just the rinsings from a tramps pants.

    Bread – For fishfinger and bacon sarnies it should be cheap white sliced. For Sausage it should be good quality thickly (hand cut) white with big crusts
