Heinz renamed two sources for the Queen's Jubilee.

In case you missed the earth-shattering news, Queen Elizabeth II got her very own Barbie doll to commemorate her platinum jubilee.

But of course, Mattel is not the only brand that saw the perfect opportunity to release a limited edition product to commemorate the 70th anniversary of the monarch's reign. [Heinz's UK branch took the opportunity to temporarily rename two iconic British sauces. Before we discuss the relative superiority of U.S. and British condiments, remember not to shoot the messenger. [Salad Cream will become "Salad Queen" and HP Sauce will become "HM Sauce."

This limited edition sauce is now available at major food retailers in the UK and has even been photographed (absolutely incredible) on a silver platter in front of Windsor Castle. This is art. This is art. [This is a special moment for the Queen and the British people and we want to celebrate it with two of our most beloved and historic sources. Releasing a limited edition bottle during the Jubilee seemed like a perfect fit," said Heinz rep Anke von Hanstein. [HP sauces and Heinz Salad Cream have been on the tables of the English throughout the reign of the Queen, bringing delicious and distinctive flavors to our favorite meals. We hope our customers enjoy these festive designs and that they will add a touch of fun to any Jubilee celebration, whatever the celebration."

By the way, salad cream is a mayonnaise-like condiment in a squeezable bottle that the British love to use as a salad dressing or sandwich spread; HP sauce is similar to ketchup but with added tamarind, and is simply " known as "brown sauce.

To conclude this wonderful news, here is HM OG pushing a button to activate a packaging machine at the Heinz factory in 2009:
