He tells me it's the sugar they use that makes it different. -- nm - Remlik Nov 26, 11:44 8
- This might be true.....importing sugar into the US is very expensive because of the Florida sugar lobby...maybe American sugar cane is not as good? -- nm - Walt_Disney Nov 26, 11:45 6
  - they may use high fructose corn syrup or something instead (Does Canadian Heinz ketchup use real sugar though?) -- nm - Roger More Nov 26, 11:47 4
    - I can check when I get home, but I think it uses fructose/glucose, which is the same as HFCS, afaik -- nm - Beryllium Nov 26, 11:48 3
      - lots of discussion about how Canadian Heinz ketchup doesn't have HFCS - but nothing that's actually evidence -- (link) - Roger More Nov 26, 11:52
      - he says Canadian Heinz... - Remlik Nov 26, 11:51 1
        
        Well, I like Heinz, and I like Sugar, so ... I wouldn't be surprised. -- nm - Beryllium Nov 26, 11:52
  - Like anything uses sugar any more. It's all about corn syrup, and the corn lobby ... heheh -- nm - Beryllium Nov 26, 11:47
- I wasn't aware of a difference. As far as I know, Heinz Canada exports a ton of ketchup to the US already ... hmm. - Beryllium Nov 26, 11:45
