He..z spread

[Spreckly]

My Mother used to buy a spread made by He..z. It was sold in a jar, and looked like mayonnaise with different coloured bits in it. I thought it looked and tasted disgusting, but the rest of the family loved it. I think the coloured bits were some kind of very sharp pickle. Does anyone remember it, and what was in it?

Just curious.

Sounds like sandwich spread Spreckly. Used to love it

[wendy]

I absolutely love it and still have it now
I think the red bits are pimento's. Green ones are probably Gherkins.

Yes, we had sandwich spread. I think mum bought it as a cheap sandwich filler. I still like it, but don't buy it now. No idea how much it is.

Certainly sounds like sandwich spread. Used to love it as a kid. Think I've only ever bought 1 jar of it as an adult though.

Currently a quid in Morrisons for a jar (£1.29 everywhere else).

More of a salad cream flavour rather than mayonnaise, I think. Had a vinegary tang to it.

Ooh I got into Sandwich Spread when I was a student - lovely in a cheese or ham sarnie!

[Spreckly]

I have never spotted it when shopping, but then I would not be buying it.

I saw it in Home Bargains a few weeks ago and bought some for nostalgias sake...

As yummy as I remembered it

Oh yumm, I used to love sandwich spread. Not had any for about 5 years now.

Ah good old sandwich spread. I used to love it as a kid. I haven't had any now for years.
