I think that's because the HP franchise their recipes, and different locations have "regional" variants. Here in the UK, it's never significantly changed so you're probably getting the English import - so, of course, there's a shipping cost on top.

    That's what I said. In the late 90s, the recipe for Canada was changed. Lately the original has been appearing in the Import aisles. What Kraft was selling as original HP since then is closer to the UK "fruity" HP variant.

    It is a bit different to say, "HP changed their recipe" versus "some dumb ass redistributor changed HP's award winning recipe and suffered the consequences" :⁠-⁠D

    Either way, I'm glad to get the original. Nothing better with some sausages or bacon...
