Man, sometimes I have had it with our society! I went to a lot of trouble to make some really beautiful cheeseburgers for lunch today. I toasted the buns, I sliced the onions and shredded the lettuce. I flavored the hamburger before and during cooking.
But I also put ketchup on them.
At my first tasty bite I was repelled by the overwhelming taste of sugar, an obscene amount of sugar. I was horrified. The burgers were ruined! I rushed, gagging and choking, to the fridge, grabbed the ketchup bottle and read the label. 4 GRAMS of sugar, per serving!? It's ketchup! A serving is like 8 or 10 grams. 4 grams!?! It's like tomato flavored bubble gum. YUCK!
Does anyone know of any brand of ketchup that is actually ketchup and not tomato based candy?

Yes, it’s called mustard.
Most commercially sold ketchup has something worse than sugar. High fructose corn syrup.
You can probably purchase ketchup free of any sweeteners in a health food store.
Try bacon.
Dirty Harry warned us many years ago not to put it on a hot dog.
It’s called catsup.

Hunts makes a non-HFCS variety. IMO, it’s not all that sweet. I prefer it over Heinz any day.
Welcome to the modern processed American diet.
LOL< You probably pronounced it like it’s spelled in public, too.

Bubble gum ketchup?

Ketchup on a cheeseburger??? Ya must be a yankee ...
I don’t recall the last time I ate ketchup.

Salsa. Or BBQ sauce.

Dirty Harry movies couldn’t be made nowadays, which only increases their value.
