Pros: It really tastes like ketchup and easy to clean .
Cons: EEEEWWWWW.....It is green!
The Bottom Line: It's a really good idea . Everyone should try it once before it is gone . Clear Pepsi didn't make it is why I say that .

What is cool about green ketchup ?
Yes , you saw right ! For those of you who haven't run across it yet - we now have green ketchup . I am proud to say that kids love it despite it looks like bird poop on your plate . Surprisingly it has the same great taste . Kids may not know this but , it also has 20% DV more vitamin
C than Heinz's regular ketchup . ( The regular stuff has no vitamin C . ) I think this may be a marketing incentive to make parents want to buy a " fad " for their kids . It works though . For some strange reason when the ketchup dries on a plate it dries powdery . This makes clean up easy . The other kind of ketchup can make you mental trying to scrape it off if it dries on . The bottle is attractive and easy to hold . The squirt tip is also great for drawing smiley faces that kids love . I also noticed the price is basically the same - no extra $ for your green with Heinz !
The not so pretty side of the story .
Unfortunately it stains . I can get the stains out of clothes fairly easy , but off of hands and faces is another story . It must have a lot of dye in it . I practically have to fight a war to scrub my little ones long enough to get them clean looking again . The color is an unreal green . Yes , this is what you are paying for , but I can not stomach the unsightly color on my plate . Traditional red for me !
