Or boycoted any heinz product, because of what they did in Birmingham, the trouble is HP sauce is to good to give up if you ask me.

Heinz bought The HP name and the factory in Birmingham ( its been a british icon for over a hundred years) then they closed it down and moved production to Holland.

Outsourcing sucks, and it seems to be a corporate crime that's here to stay. Companies have found out they can make big money by firing off a thousand people and rehiring -- under the covert label 'restructuring' -- in another state or country. This is backdoor union-busting, and more deep skimming by the investment class that destroys lives. This sort of tactic has decimated the American middle class.
Sorry to hear all this. I will boycott heinz.

Good for the Dutch I guess, and not so good for the British.
I would have to know the reason why they did that move before I can give you an answer about boycotting.

I never started eating HP sauce, so I have no need to quit eating it. Hands off my ketchup though, regardless of what they did. What DID they do??

Far too good to give up! I especially like the fruity version.
