About Foresight
Foresight is a beloved British brand specialising in traditional pease pudding, a dish deeply rooted in North East England culinary heritage. Made with split yellow peas, water, salt, and natural flavourings, Foresight Pease Pudding brings this regional speciality to supermarket shelves across the UK. The brand is distributed by Princes Ltd, one of Britain's leading food companies, ensuring wide availability of this Northern classic. Pease pudding holds a special place in North East England culture, where it has been enjoyed for generations as an accompaniment to ham, bacon joints, and sandwiches. The dish traces its origins to medieval Britain when it was a staple food for working families. Foresight preserves this tradition with ready-cooked convenience, allowing modern shoppers to enjoy authentic pease pudding without the lengthy preparation time traditionally required. The Foresight recipe uses 95% rehydrated yellow split peas combined with natural turmeric flavouring and paprika extract, creating the distinctive golden colour and savoury taste that fans expect. This simple, plant-based composition makes Foresight Pease Pudding suitable for both vegans and vegetarians, appealing to health-conscious consumers seeking traditional British foods with clean ingredient lists. Christmas dinner in the North East wouldn't be complete without pease pudding, and Foresight sees increased demand during the festive season. The versatile product can be served hot as a side dish, spread cold on bread like a pâté, or used as a filling for traditional stotties (North East bread rolls). For those discovering this regional treasure, Foresight offers an authentic introduction to one of Britain's most underrated traditional foods.
