Heinz launches three new ‘mash-up’ mayonnaise flavours, and apparently us Brits asked for it

"We’ve been working hard to mix up your favourite saucy combos."

Daisy Jackson Daisy Jackson - 13th February 2023

Heinz is launching three new flavours of its mayonnaise range, and they’re all chosen by the Great British public.

Not content with a classic mayo, the sauce brand is now creating new mash-ups, blending other sauces together.

It follows the success of Heinz’s ‘Saucy Sauce’ launch, which was a half-ketchup half-mayo blend.

More than 81,000 Brits voted for the mash-up they wanted next, and it was a landslide victory for three sauces – Sriracha, mustard, and barbecue sauce.

So now there’ll be MayoRacha, MayoMust and MayoCut hitting supermarket shelves from today, Monday 13 February.

Heinz said: “Fish and chips, the Sugababes, Bennifer… some things just go better together. So, when half of Brits (51%) told us they mix sauces on the plate and 66,440 people said they want to see Heinz [Seriously] Good Mayonnaise mixed with sriracha, mustard and BBQ, we listened!

“We’ve been working hard to mix up your favourite saucy combos, and today, we can unveil three brand new, smooth and creamy Heinz Mayo Mashupz to take any home-cooked meal to the next level.”

They say that MayoRacha is the perfect sauce for dipping pizza crusts and chip into, or using to spice up sushi.

MayoMust is best-suited to chicken, hot dogs and sandwiches, while MayoCue is ‘banging with burgers or perfect with pizza’.

Wendy Lin, Senior Brand Manager at Heinz, said: “We love that people are getting creative with their sauce combos. So, we placed the power in the hands of the public to decide what Mashup we should create next.

“A quick dollop of our MayoRacha, MayoMust or MayoCue is all it takes to level-up mealtimes and get your tastebuds tingling. Our Mashupz are the perfect companion for pizza crusts, chips, burgers, sandwiches, sushi lunches and so much more.”

All three sauces are available in ASDA stores nationwide from 13 February 2023 for £3.39 (RRP) for 400ml.

Heinz MayoCue will be available in ASDA exclusively for 12 months, while Heinz MayoRacha and Heinz MayoMust will be available in wider retailers from early April.

A sneak peek at the first pour: Greater Manchester celebrates the return of Boddingtons

Danny Jones Danny Jones Boddingtons is back on tap draught in Greater Manchester

Greater Manchester has every reason to drink and jubilate this Friday and toast the perfect excuse for an early dart as the first fresh pours in a new chapter for Boddingtons beer have been sunk.

And by’eck if ain’t still bloody gorgeous.

That’s right, in case you didn’t hear the latest news about ‘Cream of Manchester’, we can now officially and ever-so gladly confirm that Boddingtons Bitter is properly back on draught in the region.

With the iconic cask ale making a glorious return decades on from its glory days in the 1990s, the new and improved Boddies beer is flowing from the taps – just in time for the weekend, no less.

Yes, with local brewery and pub chain J.W. Lees taking over the manufacturing and distribution, leaving the Budweiser Group to take over the licensing, the updated recipe Boddingtons – which clocks in at a 4.0% ABV – is about to be rolled out across the 10 boroughs.

Better yet, with five native pubs having already reinstalled honey yellow and black pumps, and with Lees looking to deliver it to the ale-loving masses across the North West, this could be the biggest Manc comeback since, well, those two lads from Burnage…

Speaking of: we were invited along to Founder’s Hall on Albert Square (formerly Duttons and now home to every one of the brand’s beers, not to mention serving as a tribute to John Lees himself), for a special ceremony to celebrate the inaugural public pints of Boddies being poured.

Let’s just say we were honoured to be part of the grand resurrection.

Obviously, there have been some holdouts hanging onto the classic Mancunian brew, and we certainly had fun trying to track them down over the past couple of years, but we’re just glad we don’t have to do as much work to find one now.

The lost art of Boddingtons, and which pubs still serve The Cream of Manchester

Managing Director of JW Lees, William Lees-Jones, said on the relaunch: “When I joined JW Lees in 1994, Boddingtons was ‘The Cream of Manchester’ and we were in awe of their position in leading the cask beer revolution.

“We’re proud to bring it back home, starting with Founder’s Hall, and we’re planning to restore Boddington’s as one of the UK’s leading premium cask beers, particularly here in the North West.” Well said, sir.

Available from Founder’s Hall, The Black Friar in Salford, Stables Tavern; Sams Chop House, The Circus Tavern, Oxford Road Tap, Piccadilly Tap and Victoria Tap from today, as well as Corbières and Stockport pubs like The Crown and The White Lion, we can’t wait to see Boddingtons take over the nation.

In the meantime, why not look back at the storied history behind one of our finest exports?

Subway launches make-your-own jacket potato concept ‘Spudway’ across UK

Emily Sergeant Emily Sergeant Spudway

Subway is finally launching its viral make-your-own jacket potato concept ‘Spudway’ at all its restaurants in the UK.

That’s right – you can now walk into any Greater Manchester Subway and order a jacket potato instead of a sandwich, and you get to choose exactly what goes on top of it.

Britain has always been a nation of ‘jacket fanatics’, with almost half of Brits claiming the spud to be a British cultural icon, but according to new research by Subway, it’s been found that nearly a quarter (23%) of us have argued with family and friends over how to prepare or serve one.

So it’s fair to say that, yes, us Brits do love ourselves a jacket potato, and this is why ‘Spudway’ is launching nationwide.

The UK-wide rollout of Spudway comes after it was trailed in select sites earlier this year, and then proved so popular that the trail was extended to include more locations.

Now, those fluffy jacket potatoes are available everywhere.

You can choose topping options like the simple Cheese & Beans or Tuna Mayo, or you can opt for Subway specialities like Meatball Marinara, and Chicken Tikka, but the beauty of Spudaway is it’s all fully customisable.

This means you can pick, quite simply, from whatever you fancy at the protein and salad counters, and finish it with your choice of Subway’s wide selection of signature sauces.

“The nation’s love of Jacket Potatoes is unparalleled,” commented Cathy Goodwin, who is the Interim Director of Culinary & Innovation Subway EMEA.

“The enthusiasm we’ve seen on social media and the strong demand from our guests throughout the trial made it clear that Spudway deserved a permanent place on our menu.

“Made with British potatoes, Irish salted butter, a double portion of cheese, and fully customisable with any of our many toppings, Spudway is the perfect freshly-made, high-quality lunch choice.”

Spudway jacket potatoes are freshly baked in-store daily and can be enjoyed on their own, or as part of a meal deal – which includes a spud, drink, plus crisps or a cookie.
