What ketchup should I buy when I go to the store later this weekend /ck/?
Here's some taste-tests I found, but I also want your opinion:

Hunt's was #6
I found the comparisons where Hunt's came out on top tended to test their sugar version, and where they did poorly the HFCS version was used (Serious Eats). Also Simply Heinz is their brand's sugar version over the HFCS in their regular version (the Organic version uses Organic tomatoes + Sugar).
I didnt believe the hype of heinz organic until i tried it. (This is going to sound retarded, but i dont know how to explain it.) The organic ketchup with real sugar tasted rounder, smoother. Want to try hunts real sugar version next.

From all the roundups I've been over, it sounds like there is something to that (the Mexican Coke effect?). I may just see which of their sugar-versions is cheaper when I get to the condiment aisle.
One other thing I noticed was that tasters across the benchmarks consistently rated Hunt's as being more tart/vinegary and Heinz being more on the sweeter end of the scale of balance.
Makes me want to taste hunts more since i love tart/tangy ketchup with fries.

Why does this taste so much better than any other ketchup? I normally like ranch on my fries but bust out the fancy and it's all over my face like blood on the panties of a first menstruator

they sell it at the regular grocery stores (price chopper/hannaford) here around the NY/VT border.
They don't load it up with sugar, which is probaby why it tastes so good. It's certainly a major factor.

goddamn we need whataburger in the northeast.
my parents just retired and moved back to Texas, their families live there. Whataburger is the shit. Mcdonalds has nothing on them except for locations, and nobody else has shit on mcdonalds.
I've been buying this lately. Not as thick as heinz but a little more flavourful.
Malloa :^)
GOAT ketchup coming through

Banana Ketchup sucks.

Overrated.
You guys are mostly attracted to the branding.
I get it, but it's seriously overrated.
If it somehow started getting stocked nation wide it would receive the scrutiny it deserves.

Found the flip.
Ima go with Del Monté
