Heinz Organic Tomato Ketchup (BIO) — OKAY

Munch or Dump rates Heinz Organic Tomato Ketchup (BIO) by Heinz OKAY — score 62/90.

Organic and short on ingredients, but sugar is the second thing in the bottle. It's tomatoes plus a real dose of sugar, salt, and vinegar.

Why this verdict

• Short, recognizable ingredient list with no artificial additives or preservatives
• Made from real organic tomatoes (180g per 100g of ketchup)
• Added sugar is the #2 ingredient, so it delivers a real sugar and salt hit
• Still a sweet, salty condiment best used in small amounts

Ingredients (7)

• Organic Tomatoes (safe) — Whole-food base; source of lycopene and vitamin C.
• Sugar (moderate) — Added for sweetness, can contribute to calorie content.
