Tell Heinz Ketchup To Take High-Fructose Corn Syrup Out of Their Ketchup!
This is funny, directly on their homepage of the Heinz Ketchup website, it says, "Grown, Not Made"Well, correct me if I'm wrong, but High Fructose corn Syrup is made and not grown. And because Ketchup has ingredients that are made, doesn't that make the Ketchup made?
Heinz Ketchup was started in 1876, over 130 years ago. It didn't have High-Fructose Corn Syrup in it back then, so why does it need it now?
More and more research is coming out about how bad high-fructose corn syrup is for you. It's in about over 70% of all goods in your typical super-market today . And it's no lie, Heinz Ketchup is a classic, I grew up with it, lots of people did. And now we ask Heinz itself, to let it be kept as the classic Ketchup without the High-Fructose Corn Syrup in it. There's absolutely no need for it.
I think we should fight for all major companies to stop including high-fructose syrup in our foods. We have to fight for one company at a time. With a globally collective consciousness, we can change the way our food is made and produced.
We the Consumers, used to love your ketchup. And then we found out that you started to put High-Fructose Corn Syrup in your Ketchup, which we know and believe is not necessary. Heinz has been making Ketchup since 1876, and never did it include HFCS until now. If it wasn't in the recipe before, why is it in it now?
So all we ask, is that you kindly reevaluate your recipe, and revise it so it doesn't include the high-fructose corn syrup in it, so that we may all once again enjoy the classic Heinz Ketchup, more healthily.
And just as a side note, more and more companies are becoming more "greener, more healthier". Taking out the corn syrup, might also positively benefit you as well, by attracting more consumers who watch what they eat. Taking out the corn syrup will be a win-win for everyone and a step in the right direction towards healthier food for everyone. Please do not let business be more important than the health of your consumers.
Thank you for the time reading this letter, and hopefully, it will make a positive impact on your decision.
