Food: Ketchup: Wegmans Organic Tomato Ketchup Review

T. H. Pankey
I'd imagine to my regular readers I'm beginning to sound like a broken record, saying the same thing over and over: "this is the best tasting so-and-so ever!" Well, take the needle off the record if you don't want to hear it, because here I go again: Wegmans Organic Tomato Ketchup is, by far, the best ketchup we've ever had. Ketchup is a condiment although tasting Wegmans Organic Tomato Ketchup makes you think of it as a food-it's that good.

Heinz, Hunts and Del Monte ketchups don't even come close to how good Wegmans Organic Tomato Ketchup tastes. We've been eating organic food, on the whole, for about a year, so we're still able to remember how non-organic food tastes and how it compares to organic food. Without a doubt, with some food the difference in taste is very pronounced between something organic and something non-organic. Ketchup is one of those foods, at least it is with Wegmans Organic Tomato Ketchup compared to the ketchup made by the ketchup giants. We never realized ketchup could taste so good until we used Wegmans Organic Tomato Ketchup. If just a fraction of persons who regularly eat non-organic ketchups were to taste Wegmans Organic Tomato Ketchup, well, the ketchup giants, Heinz, Hunts and Del Monte would certainly feel the squeeze. We couldn't get over how much incredibly better it tasted, so much so I can't say enough about it even now.

Below you'll find a comparison of the ingredients, which is squeezed into this review for the purpose of showing why Wegmans Organic Tomato Ketchup tastes so much better than the non-organic ketchups from Heinz, Hunts and Del Monte.

Food: Ketchup: Wegmans Organic Tomato Ketchup Review

Wegmans Organic Tomato Ketchup Ingredients: organic tomato puree, organic sugar, organic white vinegar, salt, organic onion powder, and organic spices

Heinz Tomato Ketchup Ingredients: tomato concentrate made from red ripe tomatoes, distilled vinegar, high fructose corn syrup, salt, spice, onion powder, natural flavoring

Hunt's Tomato Ketchup Ingredients: tomato puree (water, tomato paste), high fructose corn syrup, distilled vinegar, corn syrup, salt, onion powder, garlic powder, natural flavors

Food: Ketchup: Wegmans Organic Tomato Ketchup Review (Conclusion)

What else is there to say other than comparing the price. A 24 ounce plastic container of Wegmans Organic Tomato Ketchup the same price as a 20 ounce plastic container of Heinz Tomato Ketchup: both are .11 cents an ounce. A 20 ounce container of Heinz costs (about) $2.19 while a 24 ounce container of Wegmans costs (about) $2.69, again that means both worked out to about .11 cents an ounce. Though, the real difference is Heinz Tomato Ketchup is full of corn syrup and taste like a condiment, whereas Wegmans Organic Tomato Ketchup isn't full of high fructose corn syrup and tastes like food.

    I want to try it based on the fact that it doesn't have high fructose corn syrup in the ingredients. Sounds yummy!

  • Lyn Lomasi8/31/2009

    Usually I don't even like ketchup. Maybe it's the high fructose corn syrup. I'll have to try this kind and see if that changes my mind.
