EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time with this vintage postcard featuring a cheerful bottle of OK Sauce, a beloved British condiment from the WW2 era. The bright label, adorned with the reassuring slogan "Don't Worry About Me - Everything's O.K.," was a morale booster for many during the challenging times of the 1940s. OK Sauce, a fruity brown sauce not unlike HP, was a staple in British households for the first half of the 20th century. Its unique flavor and comforting message made it a popular choice for adding zest to meals and lifting spirits during the hardships of the war. Despite being dropped by most major supermarkets in the post-war era, OK Sauce has found a new home in the Chinese community. The bottle, now with prominent Chinese lettering, can still be found in Chinese stores, a testament to its enduring appeal. This postcard, dated circa 1944, offers a glimpse into the past and a reminder of the simple pleasures that brought comfort and joy to people during a time of uncertainty. The OK Sauce bottle, with its iconic label and uplifting message, remains a fascinating piece of British and food history.
