Just in time for barbecue season, Hunt's is introducing its Best Ever Ketchup, an all-natural ketchup condiment that's its thickest and richest yet. The 100% natural ketchup is made with just a few simple ingredients like vine-ripened California tomatoes and cane sugar in place of high fructose corn syrup.

The all-natural condiment is being introduced at a time when health-conscious consumers are paying close attention to ingredient lists and are actively looking to purchase [clean label food products](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smash-kitchen).

As well as being able to enjoy the natural ketchup on burgers and fries, consumers will also enjoy creating recipes like wings, slow cooker ribs, [DIY cocktail sauces](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/zing-zang-bloody-mary-ketchup) and other dips with the condiment.
