Actually strangely it stands for Houses of Parliament. No fucking idea why.

They don't sell HP sauce in the US. What does it taste like?

It's infinitely better than Ketchup but is used for exactly the same stuff. I can't explain how it tastes, you need to experience it yourself.

Like A1, if A1 wasn't overly vinegary and had tamarind in it.

The inventor claimed that they'd been serving it at the restaurant in the Houses of Parliament, it's possible that this is true because it was invented in the 1870s and he registered the name HP Sauce in 1895, but it could also just be a marketing thing like 'oh this stuff is so good that they serve it to the aristos!' (bear in mind that at this point most people didn't even have the right to vote, never mind run for parliament).

Imagine claiming to be a competent cook when you can't even put together a bacon sarnie
