| ■ Heinz Cooks Up a Less Salty Ketchup | 2010.05.14 |
| In a nod to America's growing interest in healthy eating, Heinz is reducing the salt in its ketchup. The new version -- with a 15 percent cut in sodium -- represents the first significant formula change in 40 years, the condiment maker said, the Associated Press reported. It will appear on store shelves this summer. The altered recipe was tested in cities throughout the United States, said Jessica Jackson, spokeswoman for the Pittsburgh-based company. Jackson added that the change will be reflected in the nutrition panel, but said consumers wont see a dramatic label change announcing the recipe's alteration, the AP said. |
