Anyone ever try this? I noticed it this week for the first time and figured I'd give it a shot. It is outstanding. Far better than Hunts or Heinz.

Haven’t tried it as I’m a Heinz fan, but I’ll check it out as I don’t recall ever having it.

Yea, been using it for years now. Only brand we'll buy. So much better than Hunts, Heinz or Publix brand.

I like the Publix Greenwise ketchup. Guess I'll give it a try next time.
 
I bought a bottle of it yesterday and I do like it! It's a bit thicker with a fresher, zestier taste then the Publix Greenwise brand I use.

The only condiment with a title that I have tried is Duke's Mayonnaise and it's pretty damn good. Maybe I'll give the knighted ketchup a try.
 
Nah, fam. This is where it's at.

Absolutely, I refuse to use Hunts. I’ll go without before using it.
You are totally dropping the ball on this thread.

Where is the story of the best ketchup you've had being prepared by Tibetan monks displaced in South America?

Where is the story of Catsup being the term used nearly exclusively until Heinz started marketing it as Ketchup.

Where is the story that McDonalds doesn't serve Heinz and never did serve regular Heinz, as the formula made for them was always different from the regular formula?

Where is the story about how catsup originally wasn't even made from tomatoes, but started as fish paste and then mushroom paste?

And why doesn't anyone actually make homemade ketchup, and couldn't it actually be better?

I thought everyone knew ketchup was most commonly made from mushrooms or fruit until Heinz came along. Basically it started as a corruption of Asian fish sauce names and in Britain and the Americas became a sort of vinegary, nutty mushroom sauce and in the more exotic locales of the British empire it was usually a vinegar and mashed fruit sauce (banana, jackfruit, brambles, etc...). Only later in America (and around the same time Oz and New Zealand) did tomato based ketchups show up. Heinz didn’t create it but he did perfect it and spread its popularity through America and later the globe.

And for me there’s two products I actually prefer the chemical laden, mass processed versions over fresh homemade. Ketchup and Peanut Butter. I want Heinz only (haven’t tried the Kensington yet) for ketchup and Peter Pan only for Peanut Butter.

I am so disappoint. But I'll give you a pass this once.
