Saucy Thread - Tomato Ketchup

[dgl]

Yes, I had that once and agree, it is excellent!

Also agree, has a nice tang to it , again quite expensive but worth it for a special occasion.
Good in a hamper/present for someone who has ketchup with everything.

Heinz, Sainsburys Basics, whatever... all tastes the same to me.

I don't like glass bottles though.

how come? they can be recycled easily

how come? they can be recycled easily

Probably because he has hit the bottom of the bottle attempting to extract some of the contents and half the stuff has disgorged swamping his egg or whatever in a sea of ketchup

Indeed, I don't like them because it's such a pain to get the contents out of.

As regards to recycling, my council recycles polypropylene anyway, so the bottle can be fully recycled either way.

That said, the best ketchup was always Hammond's, but I'm not sure if it's still available. These days it's whatever's on offer at the supermarket but only if it is in a plastic bottle due to Kirklees Council not collecting glass in our recycling bins.

*=correctly as per the brand, that is... Though the silly name is one reason I won't buy the stuff!

How is that even a thing when its the easiest and most widely recycled item after paper? That's shocking and Id have words if I were you

Bracknell Forest don't collect glass either - it is up to the public to take it to the bottle bank.

Tomato ketchup is for girls. HP Sauce is manly.

+1. Never been a ketchup fan, love the taste of HP. Especially when it was made in Brum.

HP sauce hasn't been the same since Heinz bulldozed the factory in Birmingham and moved production to the Netherlands.

Agreed. I believe the vinegar main is still in one of the gantries of the A38(M) though (yes I am serious, vinegar was piped from one side of the Aston Expressway to another in one of the overhead gantries)

You obviously weren't looking hard enough

I don't use sauce that much, except for brown sauce on bacon butties.
Daddies or HP are both good, but some of the own brand ones are just as good.

My son likes tomato ketchup and is currently quite happy with the Tesco own brand decanted into a Heinz bottle.

Heinz ketchup mixed with a tiny dash of sweet chilli sauce...perfect.
