- robolange 3y agoYes, and the alternatives are more or less identical to Heinz. The diversity of flavors and textures that this article talks about no longer exists.
- keiferski 3y agoI don't think that's true at all, except for the most generic of grocery stores. Case in point: https://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/search?text=ketchup https://www.wholefoodsmarket.com/search?text=ketchup There are also an innumerable amount of other sauces that include tomatoes and can be considered variants or ketchup-adjacent.
- robolange 3y agoNaturally on the Internet there is an infinite variety. But using that Whole Foods site to filter the list to what's physically available at stores in my area, it reduces down to a list that's more or less Heinz and Heinz-like.
- FeepingCreature 3y agoI find all ketchup that isn't Born Ketchup pretty much disgusting.
- Ennea 3y agoI wasn't counting on finding anybody else who loves Born on HN, but here you are :)
