Like you could tell the difference. Screw Heinz and Mrs Kerry.

I’m not a fan of the people, but if you can’t tell the difference between Hunt’s and Heinz ketchup you might want to see if you have any taste buds left.
Not saying one is better or worse, but certainly different.

@turkeydance I read today that Tomato product prices are going up (where’s my shocked face ) due to drought conditions in CA. Time to buy now and / or grow your own. Of course we’re at the end of the tomato season here.
 
Wait, did Heinz do some commie stuff?? Someone please educate me and I'll change my ways. I'm only a heinz loyalist because I was born and raised in WV

If your food is so bad the catsup makes the meal you have bigger problems that Heinz vs French’s.
 
I cannot believe how uncultured you people are. This has been and always will be the best catsup for tots

The best tomatoes on the planet are grown in western NC. Buy them by the box, green, yellow, red or purple. Make your own sauces, soups, whatever.
Anybody know if the tomato houses are selling yet?

Yes and that's the way God intended it.

Mustard should not be in bbq sauce. And if the vinegar ingredient isn't hot pepper vinegar that has been stored in a 25 year old sobe bottle I don't want it.

I'm not native to these parts... what the heck is a tomato house? Like a produce stand?
 
Tomato house is where all the tomatoes are brought in and graded/boxes to ship out to other parts of the country/world.
Last time I stopped in the place just outside of Waynesville they were $8-$10 a box, depending on what you wanted. You can also visit some of the tomato farms and pick your own.
