BlueFront— so here is the breakdown on the Heinz ketchup.
Regular ketchup. — cal. 20, carbs 5, sugar 4, sodium 160
No sugar added. — cal. 10, carbs 1, sugar. 1, sodium 200
No salt — cal. 20, carbs 5, sugar 4: sodium 5., potassium 170
There are just a few ways that manufacturers can alter the taste of their product to meet customer demands. Salt and sugar is the perfect example. They both are powerful flavor enhancing agents. If you decrease sugar, they increase salt (sodium). If you take out sodium the sugar contend will often stay the same but they add potassium salts.
You can see that if you are just using a small amount for a couple of fries that is one thing, but if you are adding a fair amount to a hamburger or a meatloaf that is another issue. For me, sodium is my priority to control, but I try to maintain a routine carb intake at about 150. Every little bit helps. Is it worth the change on a permanent basis? I’m not sure it is, but when I recently ran low on ketchup I bought the no salt and the no added sugar and and mixed them together in the same bottle .i think the taste is fine. Not sure I’ll do it on a permanent basis.
