Heinz Hot Varieties is a new trio of spicy ketchup flavors with a diverse range of flavors, unique pepper bases and varying heat levels. This new range introduces three Heinz Spicy Ketchup Offerings: Chipotle (medium), Jalapeño (hot), and Habanero (hotter.)
Also launching with this lineup is the first-ever HEINZ Hot 57 Sauce. As the brand detailed in a press release, "We know consumers are hungry for a wider variety of spicy sauces and flavors, and as a consumer-obsessed brand at the forefront of food culture, we saw an exciting opportunity to innovate around our fans’ evolving preferences." In fact, research says that nearly 50% of all Millennial and Gen Z condiment buyers in the United States regularly use spicy sauces and actively seek a greater variety of spicy flavor options.
