Emperor Tomato Ketchup - Stereolab

Oh dear me.. Tesco Value Tomato Ketchup

Advantages: Cheap in price
Disadvantages: Acidic taste, strange over powering flavours

When it comes to eating my tea I always end up with a lot of sauces accompanying it. This can range from anything from mayonnaise, barbeque sauce to tomato ketchup. I don't think there are many people who don't like a bit of tomato ketchup with their chips (Unless you're my dad that is who gets in a panic if it ends up on his plate!) I have always been a big fan of the Heinz brand of tomato ketchup but lately I have watched the price go up and up, the 570g bottle currently retailing in Tesco for the price of £2.00. I decided to try the Tesco Value tomato ketchup, the 570g bottle being priced at a fantastic 38p, after all, Ketchup is ketchup and surely they could not be that much difference in taste, a tomato is a tomato and I was only paying for fancy packaging and a brand name right???? The Tesco Value product comes in a glass ...

Review of Tesco Value Tomato Ketchup

Tomato Ketchup with your ice cream sir? (Branston Tomato Ketchup)

Advantages: Good value, nice taste
Disadvantages: Doesn't go with ice-cream

After being accused over the last couple of weeks of having ketchup with everything, I thought this brand of the red stuff deserved a quick review as it is currently has pride of place in my fridge. It is presented in what nowadays seems to be the typical ketchup bottles, in a plastic container with a reseal able white lid. I believe these new designs of bottles have meant to be easy to extract the sauce. This have to say is successful in the fact that unlike the traditional glass containers you do not risk emptying have the bottles contents onto your food to make it into an undesirable tangy tomato soup. However, I find once you get to the end of the bottle it is incredibly difficult to get the last of the precious sauce out. The bottle in my fridge contains 720grams although I believe it is available in a variety of sizes ...

Review of Branston Tomato Ketchup

Lidl's Hot Tomato Ketchup

Advantages: Inexpensive, great taste, glass bottle
Disadvantages: Not as concentrated as Heinz Chilli Ketchup

I started buying this Tomato Sauce a few years ago from Lidl's. Priced very affordable at £0.58p (Oct 2009) it leaves it's rivals for dust. As for the taste it tastes a lot like Heinz Chilli Ketchup which is way more expensive. The ketchup comes in a 500ml/ 560grams glass jar. I quite like this because it is old-fashioned. It has 0.2% chilli in it and it's very low in fat. The taste of the ketchup is not too hot, it won't blow your head off! The texture is quite thick but not too thick and once eaten, leaves a lovely after-taste. Maybe this is beacuse the container is glass and not plastic. I've introduced a few family members to this sauce and they now love it. I buy it quite often as I'm a sauce person not a mayonnaise person. This product represents excellent value for money, forget Tesco Tomato Sauce, etc. You will not ...
