Re: Got Sarsons

Fan of Mr O - Sarson's have done it. You can still buy 5l containers of Sarson's vinegar but you can't get the tops off the plastic shakers to refill them (well, you can, but with some difficulty and a pretty poor success rate).

Sarson's reason? "We were aware that other vinegars were being decanted into our recognisable, tear shaped bottle and so the expected Sarson’s taste was not being delivered to our consumers when they used the iconic bottle."

There wasn't much of an outcry as far as I remember, although I've never bought Sarson's vinegar since I broke the last shaker and I never will again.

As for HP - I gave up on them after I bought my first laptop - which was HP - and a PoS.
