Our guarantee of freshness, commitment to flavour and our nostalgia for traditional production methods is something we will never compromise on. No wonder we continue to supply supermarkets and independent specialist food shops the length and breadth of the UK. I hope this clears this up and I welcome the forum on which we believe is still the best Piccalilli out there, we sell 10,000 jars per week and now have a national listing with Sainsburys so there are more and more people getting the taste you have had for years.

Lots of truths and semi truths throughout the thread and I will try and tell you exactly whats what! From then on you could find Cunninghams in every shop in sheffield, there were even tales of it being available in hairdressers and other such places. Up until the 80's Cunninghams continued to be available everywhere, but when the Supermarkets sounded the end of many smaller shops the sightings of Cunninghams became more scarce. We were faced with almost extinction or to supply where most people were actually shopping. Between 1993 and 1995 we went from supplying 1 sainsbury store on archer road to supplying over 300 supermarket stores in the region, as well as Fortnum and Mason and the corner shop on Coronation Street!
