'''HP Sauce''' is a popular [[condiment]] in the [[United Kingdom]] and [[Canada]]. It is a brown sauce originally produced by [[HP Foods]] in the United Kingdom, now produced by the [[H. J. Heinz Company]] in the [[Netherlands]]. It is named after the [[Houses of Parliament]] in the United Kingdom and is a staple in many British households.

==Etymology==
The name "HP Sauce" is derived from the [[Houses of Parliament]], the iconic building in [[London]], [[United Kingdom]]. The sauce was reportedly used in the Houses of Parliament restaurant, leading to its name.

==History==
HP Sauce was first created in 1899 by Frederick Gibson Garton, a grocer from [[Nottingham]]. He registered the name H.P. Sauce in 1903 after hearing that a restaurant in the Houses of Parliament had begun serving it. In 1903, Garton sold the recipe and brand to Edwin Samson Moore for the sum of £150 and the settlement of some unpaid bills. Moore, the founder of the Midlands Vinegar Company (the forerunner of HP Foods) subsequently launched HP Sauce as a national brand.

==Ingredients==
The exact recipe for HP Sauce is a closely guarded secret, but the ingredients on the label include [[tomato]], [[malt vinegar]], [[molasses]], [[glucose-fructose syrup]], [[spirit vinegar]], [[sugar]], [[dates]], [[cornflour]], [[rye flour]], [[salt]], [[spices]], and [[tamarind]].

==Varieties==
There are several varieties of HP Sauce, including HP Fruity, HP BBQ, and HP Reduced Sugar & Salt. Each variety has a slightly different taste and consistency, but all are based on the original HP Sauce recipe.

==In popular culture==
HP Sauce has been referenced in various aspects of British popular culture, such as television and music. It is often used as a metaphor for something that is quintessentially British.
