I love Heinz Sandwich Spread and I regularly have a jar in the fridge. It is great at livening up a boring sandwich and although I do prefer coleslaw as a sandwich ingredient, this keeps in the fridge for longer. Heinz Sandwich Spread comes in a glass jar, with a green metal, screw top lid. When opened, the first thing I notice is the smell of vinegar and is does remind me of salad cream, in smell and flavour, but with added vegetables. This pale, creamy yellow spread is very crunchy and is full of vegetables, but they are so tiny, it's impossible to taste them individually. This is actually good, as I would never choose to eat either gherkins or ...  Read the complete review

I suspect that Heinz Sandwich spread is a bit like Marmite , you either love it or hate it. I have to say I fall into the latter group. Like myself it has been around a long time. I first tasted it in the late 60's, during my nursing training study blocks, when we were offered it for afternoon tea. These consisted of slices of bread and butter, with a choice of jam or Sandwich Spread. I had never tasted it before, but possibly as a result of being ravenously hungry I thought it tasted fantastic and wolfed it down. If you haven't tasted it before it is a sort of creamy, vinegary mayonnaise, containing small crunchy pieces of vegetables. ...  Read the complete review

Heinz Sandwich spread is a bit of a staple food for my lunch. I like sandwiches but quite often I dont know what to have in them. Do I want meat? erm.. no. Do I want fish? no. I want something that will not be overpowered by the bread taste and be savoury and tangy. I love vinegary tasting foods and pickled foods even though they arnt good for me so I try and limit them to special occations but sandwich spread is something I have in my sandwich at least once a week and sometimes every day. The spread is made of vinegar, vegetable oil, eggs and mustard and contains chunks of cabbage, gherkins and carrots. The spread comes in a 270g glass ...  Read the complete review

It’s difficult to know whether to give this stuff a good or bad review. It’s quite obviously totally bad for you and to some palates repellent, but for some of us it is also insidiously more-ish. There was a story years ago that the BBC kept a stock of this product in the drama effects department in order to represent a certain effluent produced by the stomach. I was very surprised to find that it still exists on a visit to my local Tescos. I have been out of the country for a long time. I remember my mum buying it when I was a teenager, which makes it at least 35 years old. I’ve tried to find out exactly when it first hit our supermarket shelves but it seems to be ...  Read the complete review

I was first introduced the Heinz Sandwich Spread last summer when my Husband brought home a jar with the weekly grocery shopping. We had been discussing how to make lunch at work more interesting by introducing new flavours and filling to our sandwiches, amongst other suggestions. My husband has always been a meat and sauce kind of guy and it was no surprise he decided to use my sandwiches as a trial run the next day. Heinz sandwich spread contains a mixture of finely chopped carrots cabbage, gherkins and red peppers in a tangy mustard, onion and vinegar sauce. The mixture has a thick consistency but unfortunately isn't very easy on the eyes. The smell has a ...  Read the complete review
