I'm making up a Yorkshire hamper for a Yorkshire friend of mine. I'd like the Yorkshire hamper to be full of Yorkshire products, the more ridiculous the better. So far I've tracked down:
Yorkshire bitter
Yorkshire tea
Henderson's Yorkshire Crisps, in Henderson's Yorkshire Sauce flavour
Yorkshire chorizo
Lewis & Cooper Traditional Yorkshire Biscuits
The Yorkshire Chocolate Collection
Any further suggestions please? Feel free to speak as you find.

Yes, payable to my account in the Yorkshire Building Society (address is Yorkshire Building Society, Yorkshire House, Yorkshire Drive, Bradford, West Yorkshire)

My Dad used to grow absolutely top notch forced rhubarb. People used to seek him out for it, grown in old asbestos forcing sheds.

But then that was in Lancashire....
> I think Hendersons Relish is still made in the same factory in Sheffield
Yep, still there. :O)
indeed, but calling it a factory is overdoing it a bit, it's more of an old brick outhouse. It stands out a bit next to the crappy new university buildings.
personally i can't stand the stuff and the smell makes me gag when i pass the place.
