I managed to sneak a look at some dozing persons newspaper this afternoon - it's damn hot here in the UK today so an afternoon doze is fine by me. Lying under their arm was a pickle taste test - and shock! horror! the ubiquitous Branston Pickle came out badly!
The tasters top pickle, as is so often the case, comes from a small independent producer. In this case a round of applause to Woody's Sussex Special Pickle. The quote says "Much lighter in colour than the rest, but the balance of sweetness and sourness is perfect. You get apples, prunes, swede and celery packed in, and there is none of that nasty, sugary gloop. Lovely."
Cost is £2.33. Their website offers a host of delicious looking products so you can add plenty more to your shopping basket.
Second place went to Marks and Spencers Pickle (£1.39)
