It's kind of like that, but I think that HP sauce is primarily tamarind-based, whereas there's nary a tamarind to be seen in the ingredients of A1.

If you really want to try it, amazon.com sells it. But if not, I think you could get away with substituting A1 on Spam in the instructions above.

HP Sauce is a brown ketchup-barbecue-sauce-like condiment made by Heinz..... it's got a picture of the British Houses of Parliament on it, hence HP. It's kind of spicy-tasty good. We have it in Canada, even though it originated in the UK.

Wikipedia has an article on the subject.

Uhhh. Look. Just because you're using this narrow definition of "purpose" doesn't mean that everybody is. Nor, that because science hasn't posited a value for your n term, it says we have no purpose.

It has nothing to say about the purpose of humanity or the universe. It has no evidence about the purpose of either. All the anthropomorphic "Science" has to say about the purpose of the universe and humanity is: "Oooo, this (humanity, the Universe, Marshmallow Fluff) is kinda neat, why don't we try to understand the mechanisms that underpin it?" Science looks at things. It describes and predicts the behaviours of things. It does NOT answer the question "why" in any meaningful way, beyond "to be understood."
