Giving gravy without permission could spark the end of a relationship

According to a poll by the gambling platform, USDT Casino, 81 per cent of those surveyed hate it when their other half has covered their roast potatoes, Yorkshire puddings and their choice of meat with the sauce.

This is because the gravy risked touching items that it should not, as well as getting the consistency wrong.

As a result, those who were invited to share their view in the study said it was "mildly annoying" when someone is given gravy without permission - and even "relationship-ending".

no spokesman said: "Gravy is clearly sacred in the UK.
"Whether you're a thick-pour traditionalist or prefer it light and runny, one thing's for sure - don't assume you can dish it out for someone else."
