Tiptree Tomato Ketchup — OKAY

Munch or Dump rates Tiptree Tomato Ketchup by Tiptree OKAY — score 62/90.

A genuinely clean ketchup - real tomatoes, no artificial additives - but sugar is the second ingredient, so it's still a sweet condiment.

Why this verdict

• Short, all-recognizable ingredient list with no artificial colours, preservatives, or thickeners
• Real tomatoes are the dominant ingredient
• Sugar is the #2 ingredient (~31g per 100g), so it's meaningfully sweetened
• No emulsifiers, modified starch, or flavor enhancers - not engineered

Ingredients (6)

• Tomatoes (safe) — Whole real food, the bulk of the can.
• Sugar (moderate) — Added for sweetness, can contribute to calorie content.
• wine vinegar (safe) — Natural acidulant for tang and preservation; negligible health impact.
• lemon juice (safe) — Provides natural acidity and flavor.
• Salt (moderate) — Used in moderation, might exceed necessary amount.
• Spices (safe) — Real seasoning — the flavor comes from spices, not additive flavor systems.
