the deal with ketchup is that there is so much sugar happening in every tasty spoonful that there is little room for improvement...they've tried spicing the stuff up a bit, but it just becomes a spicy spoonful of sugar....but it helps the medicine go down, when, as stompin tom sang, "the bottle drips all over the chips".....
