Mustard and Ketchup are often enjoyed alongside one another and the Somers Family MustKetch saves consumers the hassle of squeezing the condiments from separate bottles. The two-in-one condiment introduces people to a proprietary mustard and ketchup recipe that boasts a rich flavor from spices and natural flavors.

While the MustKetch Original promises to enhance classics like hot dogs and hamburgers, MustKetch Zesty is enhanced with a higher ratio of mustard, plus [dill, poppy seeds and celery](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/silver-spring-foods-dill-pickle-mustard), and MustKetch Smoke boasts a smoky, savory flavor profile.

Over the last year, consumers have been treated to a range of [hybrid condiments](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mayonnaise-style-sauces), including everything from guacamole-salsas and honey-ghee to ketchup-ranch and many mayonnaise mashups. According to Somers Family, it's "Millennials who are seeking exotic and diverse flavors, as well as healthy, [gluten-free, organic and non-GMO foods](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smash-kitchen)."
