Heinz announces new ketchup and it's completely different to the staple £2.50 bottle

Daily Mirror01-05-2025

After the unannounced and limited Tomato Ketchup Sweet Sriracha drop that sold out in 15 minutes, the product will be available in all major supermarkets, starting with Asda and Morrisons
Known for a range of different products including dipping sauces, the popular brand Heinz is about to release a brand new Tomato Ketchup sauce with an Asian twist. Ever heard about Sriracha? Yes, it's a combination of the best of both worlds.
Heinz has announced a new Tomato Ketchup Sweet Sriracha hitting up the stores. Last week, the brand released a total of 57 bottles of their new product, which sold out in under 15 minutes, on the Heinz to Home website.

As the drop came without any notice in advance, disappointed Ketchup fans still had high hopes of being able to get their hands on the unique condiment. But don't worry, you'll now be able to secured the goods on the product in your local supermarket.

Promising to add 'a little swice to your life', the new fusion Ketchup brings a kick of heat, without it being too spicy. It joins the new other flavours range alongside Heinz Tomato Ketchup Pickle, Bacon and Curry.
Thiago Rapp, Director of Taste Elevation at Heinz said: 'Following the success of Heinz Pickle, Bacon and Curry Tomato Ketchup in recent years, we know our fans are constantly looking for new flavours to elevate their meals.
With the sweet and spicy trend not coming to an end any time soon, it was the perfect time to add a new twist to the iconic Heinz Tomato Ketchup taste people know and love by launching the Sweet Sriracha variety for those wanting an extra kick of sweet heat.'
If you're not a fan of spicy food, don't worry, because Sriracha isn't in the 'hot' category, but in the 'mild' level. The new sauce is perfect for those who would rather taste the flavour than just the spiciness.
It provides that rich, tomatoey flavour with a sweet kick of heat to 'enliven your senses', making your chicken tenders, mozzarella sticks and cheesy fries extra flavourful.
For those unfamiliar with the taste of Sriracha, it's a type of hot sauce made from paste of chili peppers, distilled vinegar, picked garlic, sugar and salt. Originated in Si Racha, Thailand, it goes well with seafood, or to add a kick of spiciness in any dish.
Where to get the new Heinz Tomato Ketchup Sweet Sriracha?
Sold at £3.39, Asda is the first supermarket to get their hands on the product, stocking up their shelves from April 29, followed by Morrisons from May 5 and other major UK retailers to join in the upcoming weeks. The best thing about it is that it's also suitable for vegetarians and vegans.

The cheap foreign meat flooding Britain's supermarket shelves: Farmers' fury over rise in beef and chicken imports from countries 'with lower animal welfare standards'

Cheaper chicken and beef from Australia, Poland and Uruguay is being increasingly seen at UK supermarkets, angry British farmers warned today. Chains such as Morrisons, Sainsbury's and Asda are importing meat from countries with lower animal welfare standards, according to the National Farmers' Union. Sirloin steak from Australia, raw chicken from Poland, sirloin and ribeye steaks from Uruguay and wagyu beef from New Zealand have all been spotted on UK shelves. Supermarkets are being accused of a 'huge betrayal of the UK's hard-working family farms' as they try to source cheaper imports to help keep their prices down. The NFU said the shift comes at a time when farmers in Britain already face an 'unprecedented number of challenges' amid concerns over recent trade deals. The union also pointed out that British livestock farmers adhere to robust standards, with consumers advised to look for the Red Tractor logo carrying the Union Jack. The UK has an animal welfare standards ranking far above all the other countries - listed as B, according to the World Animal Protection's Animal Protection Index. This is compared to C for Poland and New Zealand and D for Uruguay and Australia. Morrisons, which sponsors TV show Clarkson's Farm, is now selling raw chicken and Australian beef – the latter of which was made possible by Liz Truss's much-criticised post-Brexit trade deal with Australia in 2021, NFU sources told The Guardian. Tim Farron, the Liberal Democrat environment spokesperson, tweeted: 'This is appalling from Morrisons. They seek kudos for their UK sourcing but then sneakily do this, undermining British farmers and undermining their own integrity and brand.' Meanwhile Asda is selling sirloin and ribeye steaks from Uruguay, priced much lower than the UK equivalents, under the Grass and Grill brand owned by Hilton Foods. They are priced at about £22/kg for sirloin and £24/kg for ribeye, which is around a fifth less than UK and Irish beef at £28/kg and £29/kg respectively. Stuart Roberts, a beef, sheep and cereal farmer from Hertfordshire, said on X: 'With farmers under pressure from multiple directions I'd be fascinated to learn why Asda have decided this is an appropriate time to start stocking Uruguayan beef. 'There is no excuse for this huge betrayal of the UK's hard-working family farms. Consumers and farmers deserve better.' Elsewhere, Sainsbury's has also been stocking wagyu beef from New Zealand – instead of Japan, where it normally comes from. NFU livestock board chairman David Barton said: 'It's deeply concerning to see major retailers now move away from their previous commitments to sourcing British in the last few weeks in favour of imports, many of which have been produced to lower standards. 'Farmers' long-standing partnerships with retailers have supported sustainable supply chains, so this shift is alarming. 'Over the past year, the industry has heard warm words from almost every major retailer pledging support for British farmers. But these words ring hollow when British produce is not given pride of place on shelves.' He added that decisions to 'renege on sourcing commitments' are damaging trust and farmer confidence at a time of global insecurity when sustainable food supply chains have 'never been more important'. Mr Barton continued: 'British farmers have invested in higher standards such as reducing antibiotic use in beef and lowering poultry stocking densities in sheds. 'Consumers want these high-quality production systems, shown by over one million people signing our petition for import standards to match the UK's. 'But delivering these standards comes with additional financial costs. Long-term sourcing commitments from retailers are essential to ensuring that the high welfare British food consumers want remains available.' A Morrisons spokeswoman said: 'Morrisons remains 100 per cent British on all our meat counters. In our aisles – alongside our New Zealand lamb – we are introducing trials of some imported meat from trusted suppliers to help us offer outstanding value through the seasons and through any supply fluctuations. An Asda spokesman added: 'We always look to offer customers a wide choice of products to suit all budgets, and the country of origin is always clearly labelled on pack so customers can make an informed choice about their purchases. 'Grass & Grill steaks are provided by a branded partner and available in our stores for a limited time only. All of Asda's own brand fresh beef continues to be sourced from farms in the UK and Republic of Ireland.' And a Sainsbury's spokeswoman said: 'We're proud to work with thousands of British farmers year-round and the vast majority of our beef range is sourced from the UK and Ireland. We have no plans to change this approach. 'All of our suppliers also have to meet the same rigorous quality standards, regardless of where the product is sourced from. 'These seasonal products account for just 0.1 per cent of our beef range and are an example of where there are times we may also source from elsewhere like New Zealand, so that we can continue to meet customer demand. 'The country of origin is clearly labelled, to help our customers make informed choices when they shop with us.'
