With a touch of Relish
William Arthur Morley, 4 July 2007
If you’ve been to South Yorkshire,
To Sheffield Town no doubt,
You’ll know there’s something special there,
That makes them sing and shout.
It isn't the steel their famous for,
Or the worlds first football club,
The Blade and Owls? Well down the list,
No, it’s all to do with grub.
It isn’t noted for its Caffs,
Though its beer was a special brew,
‘Cos what comes out as Number One,
Is the Stuff they put in stew.
Not just in stew, but other things,
That folk want to embellish,
A super special additive,
Its name? Henderson's Relish.
Just try it with your fish and chips,
Or meat and ’tater pie,
It’ll make your taste buds shout for more,
And blow your mind sky high.
Yes, Henderson’s is the special stuff,
You’re sure to shout for more,
But just take care to look for it,
In a Sheffield only store.
It’s been around one hundred years,
But don’t get perplexed,
If you cant get it where you live,
They’ll post some, send a text.
You can have it with so many things,
Almost anything that's savoury,
It beats those other similar things,
there’s nothing else so flavoury.
Next time your shopping, ask for it,
You needn’t make a fuss,
Then add it to your regular list,
be a Henderson’s, JUST LIKE US!.
