Slices of dried ketchup are here to stop your burger going soggy - but food fans are divided

Are these any good?

I have yet to try this... So, I can't say... But, I can imagine that...

1.) It keeps the ketchup evenly placed on the sandwich, and prevents it from "Squirting" out when you eat it...

2.) It does keep the bread from getting "soggy", if you are not going to eat the sandwich right away. (Like taking sandwiches to school or work for lunch)

3.) It probably tastes fine.

But, I have to wonder if the dryness & texture might not be desirable...

Is this like eating that dried ketchup residue that you find on the bottle? Yuck!

Or is it chewy, like eating a fruit rollup? No Thanks...

You get eight in a packet

Maybe I don't want EIGHT sandwiches at a time... What am I supposed to do with the other seven slices?

Umm. No. I think, I'll just stick with carrying regular sauce packets, or a small picnic size bottle.

Emily also decided to do away with the preservatives and high fructose corn syrup typically used in ketchup, instead using healthier ingredients.

I am all for a product that is healthier... However, as I noted... It sounds like the product would not meet my "usage" requirements. So why bother?

Tomato ketchup just got the make-over no one asked for.

I think I would have to agree with this... For the most part, I think Ketchup was fine, just the way it was.

Besides, I guess you wouldn't want to use this product with French Fries... So, you would still need the regular kind, to dip them in anyway.

DISCUSS...

To me, this is a solution in search of a problem. I like ketchup, mustard, pickles onions and lettuce on my burgers. All have moisture, and my burgers don't get soggy. Granted that I toast my bread, which may help. And, I pat the pickles with a paper towel.

I wonder about the cost for a package of 8 "slices." A bottle of ketchup goes a long way, in my house, and most bottles don't cost a great deal. My guess is that it wouldn't be a saving.

It might be a consideration for astronauts on the International Space Station. But, it doesn't sound to be much of an Earthly delight.
