Oh come on grow up there is no need for that. Take a look around a bit more and you will see this is a community that discusses many things.
To OP I like both so it depends what am eating. I think diffrent gravy's can fit diffrent meals well  Plus a change is always nice.

Re: gravy - thick or thin
Depends.
Thick and stick on things like chips, and on or in pies. Thick and stick is also best on heavier meats (nicely cooked beef).
Thinner is better for chicken and more delicate meats in my opinion.

Re: gravy - thick or thin
I don't mind either way as long as I don't have to cut it with a knife.

Re: gravy - thick or thin
Nither too thin or too thick. In between.
It has to be thin enough to be soaked up by the roast potatoes and yorkshire puddings.

Re: gravy - thick or thin
who voted for 'other' - what is this other?! 
I love gravy, not too thick, but definately thick as opposed to gravy you can see through that you get in some pubs and restaurants!
And I have to say - I honestly can't tell the difference between asda's smartprice one + bisto.

Re: gravy - thick or thin
I clicked other because as I said before depends what am having it with. Maybe an option for both would of been better.
