If you drank a cup a day, this would be bad news. But a teaspoon on a burger every now and then is not likely to take a minute off your life span. Remember, an average person will eat 80,000 meals in a lifetime. You can have a bag of cheetoes every now and then. Worrying about your foodwill kill you faster than anything you eat.
Genetically Modified Ketchup: Heinz Ketchup just got the “Contains Bioengineered Food Ingredients” label.
Your family’s trusted BBQ and burger staple is now officially Frankenstein food.
That’s mostly GMO high fructose corn syrup (92% of U.S. corn is bioengineered) sugars from bioengineered sugarcane and sugar beets that spike blood sugar, fuel inflammation, and mess with hormones & gut health.
Plus a non-disclosed secret proprietary blend of 'natural flavors' that is kept from public knowledge.
You thought you were just squeezing tomatoes… but you’re feeding your kids ultra-processed junk while the brand keeps the same nostalgic red bottle.
Ditch it. Make your own in 5 minutes.
Quick Homemade Ketchup (no HFCS, no GMOs):
• 1 small jar (6 oz) tomato paste
• ⅓ cup apple cider vinegar
• 2–3 Tbsp maple syrup or honey (to taste)
• 1 tsp salt
• ½ tsp onion powder
• ½ tsp garlic powder
• ¼ tsp mustard powder
• Pinch black pepper optional cayenne
Mix until smooth. Stores in fridge for weeks and tastes way better.
Throw out the Heinz. Make homemade instead.
