The taste of home

Over Christmas 2010 I returned back to London after spending 6 glorious months in the South of France. I proceeded though Gatwick Airport's arrival hall to be greeted by my inspiration for starting this blog.


There in front of me was an advert for Heinz which left me with a huge grin on my face and a tingling sensation whizzing through my body causing the hairs on my neck to stand on end.


This may sound sacrilege but despite having access to the classic French cuisine which is famous all over the globe, sometimes all I really wanted was a tin of Heinz Tomato Soup. Was this really too much to ask for?! 


The advert consisted of a display of some of the iconic sauce bottles that we all love in Britain brought to us by the multinational giant over the past 140 years. At the bottom of the poster was the strap line that made my arrival into UK all the more real.

"HEINZ,

WELCOME HOME"
