Branston Pickle, PG tips, what next?

One of our local mega marts has a small "ethnic" section that includes UK items. I scored some Branston Pickle and some PG Tips. Apart from Ploughman's Lunch what else can I do with the Branston pickle apart from eating it out of the jar with a spoon?

We used to have colored, um, er...paper of color, too...but everyone was saying there was some paper of color disease running around, and they quit making paper of color. I remember that in HS. We thought it was hilarious, but you don't find much paper of color around here anymore.

bring out the Hellmans doesn't exactly trip off the tongue in the same way does it? And what is the point of cholesterol-free mayonnaise? My grandad used to serve Imaginary mayonnaise alongside the Hellmans real mayonnaise.
