    I was in Jervis KFC today and saw a specific brand of tomato ketchup that I would like to buy:

    I saw it for sale online, but I'm wondering if anyone knows where I can get this in Dublin?

    Thanks.

    I have definitely seen this somewhere.
    I usually shop in Superquinn/tesco so try one of them??

    For me Chef is the ONLY tomato sauce ...

    it aint too bad neither

    They have that in Superquinn alright...never tried it though...

    To be honest, all tomato sauce tastes the same to me...

    Philistine.

    Hellmans Ketchup, only available on import,ftw. It can be bought in the Eastern European foodstores on Talbot St. etc. The thickest tomato ketchup i've encountered.

    Daddies and Kandee Ketchup are for poor people.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,429 ✭✭✭brettmirl


    Just to add I saw Daddies in my local SuperValu this evening too.

    I remember we used to have Kandee katchup when we were all poor in the 80s.

    By the way, my brother contends that Chef is the best ketchup but under no circumstances should it be kept in the fridge.

    At the moment, I am using Heinz Organic Ketchup. It looks slightly paler to the normal stuff...tastes the same though.

    agree with you there,most of the other brands just taste awful

    heinz is deffo the only brand as far as ketchup is concerned. I was surprised it only got 3 stars in the 'ketchup review' in the tribune yesterday. Although they
    said it was nice.

    They gave M&S own brand 5 stars, may give it a try.

    They didn't even bother reviewing chef which tells you something.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 2,335 ✭✭✭rugbug86


    chef or heinz for me...

    they have chef in the spar in col, gets a bit vinegeary though..

    see, thats what I am talking about. Your chef addiction has driven you nuts...

    There was a big poll before, Heinz won it outright. Although I prefer Chef myself, and I also prefer Kandee over Heinz as well. Heinz is fine too though. I wouldn't say I dislike it, any ketchup is fine by me!


  • Registered Users Posts: 3,437 ✭✭✭Crucifix


    A Heinz lover here, though I too was brought up on the big Kandee bottles.
    You can get a fairly nice ketchup in Lidl aswell, it's no heinz, but it gets the job done.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 291 ✭✭imeatingchips


    M&S ketchup is the winner (its great. garlic and all in it)
    Chef is 2nd

    Heinz isn't in this competition because it's not a "tomato ketchup" as such. it is merely a runny "red sauce" for childrens consumption.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 291 ✭✭imeatingchips


    heinz hasnt even got any tomatoes in it. its made of glass shards, sugar and carcinogenics and the blood of 3rd world babies.

    so there was and heinz owned chef:

    http://www.boards.ie/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=2054940242

    70% to 26%.

    although I certainly feel there is room for all kinds of tastebuds in this world and am pretty sure trying to
    argue each others tastebuds into liking one more than
    the other isn't going to work.

    I'm all for diversity, at least in condiments.

    That thread brings back a lot of memories.. mainly bad ones for some reason.

    Still.. each to their own and all that

    I know this will be a controversial opinion, but ketchup is the work of the devil.

    Starts lacing up runners...

    Alas I fear you may be correct, there will always be those who will waddle straight past the door of a triple Michelin starred restaurant to get to the nearest McDonalds. If only more people were blessed with the wisdom of imeatingchips;)

    Heinz my hoop!
    It is too vinegary - and it doesn't stick to your chips like Chef does.

    bleugh!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,234 ✭✭✭Malteaser!


    you're right about the not sticking to the chips thing but Chef just tastes way too strong!

    OhhH! The frustration of being in Burger King at 3am on a Saturday morning,
    trying desperately to get some bleedin Heinz to stay on the fries.
    I wonder do Chef do sachets? I could head out on the town prepared :)


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 17,958 ✭✭✭✭RuggieBear


    Chef is awesome.

    All of you plebs who like heinz have bland bland tastebuds.:D

    surely it is the other way round? chef is too spicy and
    overpowering, the more discerning pallet doesn't need
    so much. It is the people with bland taste buds that need
    the over the topness that is chef!

    let's face it, chef just tries too hard..
