I think Shippams actually had a 1,000 gallon vat of the stuff bubbling away in their factory, and put into those little glass jars, and then stuck different labels on to fool us that this jar tasted different to that jar. If you closed your eyes it all tasted the same.
Keep an eye on the chickens, Pat. Chicken spread was one of their best sellers.

Did you see Shippam's Guide to the Opera? "Shippam's for tea, for tea for tea....."
I suppose one might say it's forteasimo.
