A gravy mayonnaise is one of three new flavours unveiled by Hellmann’s that’s said to be “coming soon” to the UK.
The popular condiment brand has revealed that the trio of new flavours – which also includes Coronation Mayonnaise, and Chilli Charger Mayonnaise – are the latest additions to its ever-growing range, and they’re said to be inspired by “Britain’s best-loved restaurant sauces”, according to The Grocer.
The gravy flavour is said to be “the perfect dipping sauce for chicken and chips”, Hellmann’s revealed, and was also “inspired by a well-known chicken takeaway”.
The Coronation flavour offers “a tangy and jubilant” option for sandwiches, and then the Chilli Charger flavour is said have “a hot umami taste”, which makes it an ideal option for “pairing with all chicken dishes”.
While the other two new sauces are also sure to be a hit, it’s fair to say that they haven’t quite grabbed the attentions of Northerners to the same extent as the gravy flavour.

A post shared the the ever-popular budgeting page, Extreme Couponing and Bargains UK, yesterday confirming that the gravy flavour is “coming soon” has already racked up hundreds of interactions and over 5,000 comments from mayo-lovers up and down the country who seem keen to get their hands on a couple of bottles when they hit supermarket shelves next month.
Speaking ahead of the launch of the Gravy Mayonnaise, Georgina Bradford – Foods Marketing Director at Hellmann’s owner Unilever – said it would bring “exciting new flavour to kitchens and allows shoppers to experiment with a variety of occasions”.

The trio of sauces will initially be sold at Iceland and Morrisons stores UK-wide in April, before a wider rollout is expected to follow over the coming months.
They’ll be sold in 250ml squeezy bottles made from 100% recycled plastic for £2.25 each.
Keep your eyes peeled to see when they hit shelves.

Channel 4 is looking for Mancs who think they can survive the apocalypse for a new TV series
Lydia Mastrolonardo
Have you always wanted to see how long you’d last in an apocalypse?
Well now’s your chance, as Apocalypse is potentially coming back to Channel 4 for a second series, with producers having put out a nationwide casting call for contestants willing to take part.
The casting call simply reads: “Do you think you have what it takes to survive the end of the world?”
Described as a dystopian series designed to test the creativity, resourcefulness, and resilience of our nation, Apocalypse sees players are pushed out of their comfort zones and put to the ultimate test.
In the series, ordinary people are tasked with surviving for 28 days in an abandoned city – used previously only for the military to practice urban warfare – with no food, running water, electricity or heat.
Produced by The Garden – which is part of ITV Studios – for Channel 4, the show’s creators are now calling on Mancs and people up and down the country with the ‘courage and ingenuity’ to compete, to get in touch and apply for the potential second series.
Does your mate always bang on after watching a post-apocalyptic film that they would’ve done things differently? Or is the news at the moment freaking you out and you want to give the end of the world a bit of a practice run? Either way, sign up, test that plan you’ve built in your head, and see if you’ve really got what it takes.
Applications are now open, and all you need to do is fill in a short application form and one of the production team will get back to you if they would like to proceed. Come on, let’s prove what Mancs are made of.
Hundreds of katsu curries are being given out for FREE in Manchester this week

Hundreds of katsu curries are being dished up and given out for free in Manchester this week, but only for certain people.
And those lucky people will be students.
That’s right… a new semester is upon us, and thousands of freshers and returning students are descending on the city and Manchester‘s many universities for another year. But the life of a student isn’t exactly the cheapest sometimes, especially for those who haven’t had to live on a budget before moving out or into halls.
But to make things a little easier, Tampopo has announced it’ll be serving hundreds of one of its most popular dishes for free this week.
Tampopo is celebrating National Katsu Curry Day in the most delicious way possible, by giving away 700 Katsu Curries with rice for free, exclusively to freshers and students this Sunday (27 September).
Whether you’re brand new to the city, settling back into uni life, or you’re simply in need of a katsu fix, students can head to their nearest participating Tampopo and tuck into a hearty meal without needing to spend a penny.
100 katsu curries will be available each from 12-2pm at both Tampopo restaurants in Manchester city centre – which are on Albert Square, and in the Corn Exchange – or if you head over to the Trafford Centre, both the Tampopo there and the East Street sites are taking part.
“[Our] Katsu Curry has long been one of our most-loved dishes, so National Katsu Curry Day felt like the perfect excuse to give students a proper welcome to the new academic year,” Tampopo said in a statement.
So, are you feeling hungry then? The offer is exclusively available for takeaway only to freshers and students with a valid student ID, which they must present on collection.
100 portions are available at each participating location, and just one free katsu curry with rice will be available per person.
