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.

A beloved city centre takeaway has been given the title of ‘Jewel of Manchester’ by chart-topping UK singer Sam Smith.
Known for hits like ‘Stay With Me’, ‘I’m Not The Only One’ and more recently ‘Unholy’, UK pop-ballad act Sam Smith also likes to drop a food review every once in a while.
Currently on the road with a run of shows in Manchester and London for their ‘To Be Free’ live shows, Sam Smith is stopping off at some of our city’s much-loved spots.
On their food-reviewing account titled ‘Sam Served’, where they adopt the aptly-fitting nickname ‘Ham Smith’, Sam has visited restaurants across the globe – and most recently turned their attention to Manchester’s own This & That.
Smith decided to pop in and grab a cheeky rice and three from long-standing backstreet food business This & That, and it certainly went down a treat.
After sampling their amazing selection of meat, vegetable and vegan curries, the musician crowned this family-run Indian takeaway a ‘Jewel of Manchester’.
The hitmaker described this Northern Quarter Indian eatery as ‘Everything food should be’ and definitely enjoyed all the curries on offer ‘leaving belly and heart full’.
This & That prides itself on affordable and comforting food with its ‘Rice and Three Curries’ starting from just £6 – not bad for a city centre foodie spot.
Sam has racked up an impressive 490k followers via their ‘Sam Served’ profile, with famous faces like Lily Allen, Denise Welch and CMAT all wanting to know the superstar’s foodie thoughts.
After enjoying a curry or three, Sam Smith also made sure to feed their soul to by venturing down to Afflecks and getting lost in the music at Mars Tapes.
Recognised as one of the UK’s only cassette and tape shops, Mars Tapes lets you flick through their crates of physical media and even preview tracks before you buy with its dedicated listening areas.
It’s safe to say that Smith has ‘Latched’ onto Manchester’s independent business scene and we’re here for it.
The London-born artist has just released their latest album Hazel Eyes and is currently amid a UK residency tour with two dates in Manchester’s Albert Hall and eight shows set for London Coliseum.

Manchester Museum is now offering one lucky family the chance to have a sleepover with Stan the Tyrannosaurus rex.
For the first time in Manchester Museum’s history, one lucky family will be given the chance to experience an incredible night at the museum.
This unique opportunity is being offered as part of a prize draw, allowing visitors to find out what happens once the sun goes down inside the Fossils and Dinosaurs gallery – in the company of Stan, the famous Tyrannosaurus rex, of course.
The Fossils and Dinosaurs gallery is one of the most iconic spaces within Manchester Museum.
Having opened to the public all the way back in 1888, it’s part of the museum’s original building designed by celebrated Alfred Waterhouse, who also designed Manchester Town Hall and London’s Natural History Museum.
Not only will the lucky winning family enjoy an overnight stay in the gallery, but they’ll also be treated to a guided torchlight tour of the galleries after the Museum has closed, as well as other fun activities and a film screening too before bed.

“We can’t be completely sure what happens when the sun goes down in our Fossils and Dinosaurs gallery, because nobody has ever spent the night in there before, but we can only imagine the kind of fun that can be had with Stan the T. rex and his friends,” said Dean Whiteside, Head of Commercial and Operations at Manchester Museum.
“This is a chance to be a part of museum history and enjoy the kind of once-in-a-lifetime experience you can’t usually buy.
“At the same time, Manchester Museum is a charity so, by getting behind this initiative, you’ll be helping to support vital work that impacts the lives of people across Greater Manchester and beyond.”
Fancy it then? You can enter the prize draw by buying a ticket for £5 from the Manchester Museum Shop, with each ticket counting as one entry and the winner set to be chosen at random from all valid entries.
The prize draw is now open and closes on Monday 28 September 2026.
