OMG. I'm already having a depressing morning and this just about puts the lid on it @themanwithnoname and @glenalbrethsen. Is there nothing safe from the Great American Takeover?
. . . I've just checked my bottle and that, at least, is made in Hayes, Middlesex by Heinz UK.
Oh, no! Sorry you're not having a good morning. And I'm glad that your bottle is made locally. Like @glenalbrethsen said, globalization doesn't leave many people untouched. There are even a lot of brands from the US that have been bought by overseas investment companies. It's difficult to deal with at times, but also the way it goes. I hope your day gets better!
Yeah. Thanks @themanwithnoname. The day did get better. I got away from Steemit and the computer in general and went for a long walk along the seafront. The weather was gorgeous. 😊
Glad your day improved. Walks by the water normally do that for me, so glad it works for you as well.
I'm sorry your morning isn't going well, and the two of us certainly didn't mean to make it worse. My guess is, though, there's been all kinds of globalization going on for decades, which includes things founded in England being made in places around the U.S., though I really don't know how pervasive it is, since a lot of what we buy is from American companies but manufactured in China.
