Surely they are also eliminating high fructose corn syrup, right?
^…right?^
I never understood why Canada loved ketchup until I moved there. Canadian Heinz doesn't have a funky aftertaste. That's the corn syrup.
Same with coca-cola, back when I used to drink that crap. If I try now, it’s that rancid buttery/greasy after taste that lingers for 20 minutes.
I remember when I graduated and went to New York for an internship. I went to the fridge and took a big swig of Coke and was like, whats going on with my teeth and mouth? It feels weird.
Then a few people told me and I was like, why's Coke so popular in the US if it tastes like this? How come this Mexican Coke everyone is talking about isn't more popular?
I gave up sugary soft drinks for the most part now. I do have it occasionally but it's like once a week or two weeks at most.
That's why I always buy the Simply Heinz, made with sugar and no HFCS.
That was exactly my first thought.
And replacing it with… good ole shit sugar?
I think sugar is healthier, that high fructose stuff is horrible
Regular sugar and HFCS are metabolzed differently - your liver processes fructose directly which is why it's linked to fatty liver disease and insulin resistance at higher consumption levels.
It’s all bad and should. It be consumed.
You're never gonna get me to not consume sugar. Life's too short to avoid things in moderation.
I don’t disagree with you at all on that. I just wish food manufacturers would stop adding it. Sugar should be like a salt shaker, you add it yourself.
But sugar goes in ketchup. Buy sugar free ketchup if you want I guess, but I think sweetness is pretty inherent to ketchup as a condiment. That's why it's so good and versatile - it's got a balance of salty, sweet, sour, and savory.
No sugar added! We just added grape juice concentrate for no particular reason.
Lesser of two evils 🤷♂️
Didn’t work for Kamala!
I've had ketchups that are unsweetened or sweetened with fruits like ~~bananas~~ apples and squash, and both are far better than the "tomato candy" that is commercial ketchup.
Oh, banana ketchup sounds delicious!
It doesn't taste like banana. I think they just use banana puree to sweeten it a bit.
Edit: it's not bananas.

Wow thats actually pretty low in everything.
LOL, no added sugar, we've just added apple puree so there's 12.5% sugar (2/16g) but we didn't ADD any sugar (noting it's 2g carbs then also 2g sugars which doesn't sound right as well, the other 14g can't entirely be fibre and water there will be some complex carbs in there )
And damn is that Daily Value % misleading - it looks like the percentage of the product rather than recommended percent of diet
It's still about half the total sugar by weight than Heinz has (1g per 8g ketchup vs 1g per 5g ketchup from heinz).
That said, I like unsweetened ketchup a lot better but it's hard to find at a decent price. No sugars or sugar substitutes and no sweeteners like aspartame.
Sure, you guys get a lot of sugar so anything is an improvement - I just grabbed a UK Heinz Ketchup and checked and it's 11% sugars (that's the 50% less sugar version though).
