The Heinz Tomato Ketchup Zero has been announced by Kraft Heinz as the brand's first free-from formulation of the classic condiment that responds to consumer demand for products with fewer added ingredients.
The ketchup features no added sugar or salt, while also boasting 35% more tomatoes in the recipe to give it a richer tomato flavor in every serving. The condiment comes as part of Kraft Heinz's broader strategy to reduce its use of sugar by more than 60 million pounds globally in response to increasing calls amongst consumers for better-for-you (BFY) versions of their favorite foods.
The Heinz Tomato Ketchup Zero is available now at Sainsbury's in the UK where shoppers can pick up a bottle for £3.39. The condiment will receive a wider launch taking place next month.
