Heinz will now 'verify' restaurants that use their ketchup, including in Pittsburgh
Uber Eats will now show if a restaurant serves Heinz Ketchup in some markets as part of a broader 'Heinz Verified' campaign. Included in those markets is the ketchup's hometown Pittsburgh. 'By introducing Heinz Verified, we want to help restaurants succeed so communities can thrive, delivering quality and value for both restaurants and individuals through meaningful, best-in-class products and experiences,' Kraft Heinz North America President of Elevation Peter Hall said in a prepared statement. 'Our ambition is to help restaurant operators excel while also providing elevated dining experiences for people wherever they eat away from home.' Heinz cited a customer survey conducted in December of last year that found that '84% of people say they would like a restaurant more if it served Heinz ketchup,' a statistic that ultimately inspired the initiative. Beyond Pittsburgh, Uber Eats will roll the verification out in Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Los Angeles and Miami. Accompanying this program, Kraft Heinz has produced a new series called 'Daytrippin' that will be packaged for streaming platforms andYouTube. Actor and social media star Steven He will host, and the series will feature Pittsburgh's food scene. Click here to read more from our partners at the Pittsburgh Business Times.

Saucy sachet swaps: Heinz and the great Dubai ketchup amnesty
Sponsored: How Heinz solved the problem of ketchup sachet stockpiles… Have you got enough random ketchup sachets in your kitchen cabinets to sustain yourself through a simulated siege scenario? Are they all stacked like a condominium of condiments at the back of your cupboards or scattered in the miscellaneous trays of your fridge (which is a debate worth having, but we'll save for later)? Fret not, for you are not alone friends. We're talking specifically here about the little sauce-filled Alcatraz packets that are nigh impossible to break into. Ingress is usually only possible by tearing off progressively smaller shreds of the top corners with your teeth – either yielding an insufficient, itinerant stream of ketchup or an immediate, room-repainting mortar bombardment of it. A perfect metaphor for their appearance in takeaway bags. You either get none or an amount that suggests the person that was packing your food was attempting to single-handedly exhaust the world's supply of sauce packets, dumping impossible quantities in with every order. We won't squeeze silently in the dark any longer. And neither will arch ketchup ambassador, Heinz. They're using their sachet caché in the most positive and ingeniously creative way. There's a ketchup swap vending machine is at Dubai Airport Free Zone Food Court today, so now you can exchange your old, dog-eared sachets for brand new bottles of Heinz's alpha salsa – tomato ketchup. You'll need five sachets of takeaway bag detritus to exchange for a brand new bottle of Heinz Ketchup, but that's about the best currency exchange deal we've heard of since the USD 5 Bitcoin.

The Kraft Heinz Company (KHC): Among Defensive Dividend Stocks To Buy During Market Sell Off
We recently published a list of . In this article, we are going to take a look at where The Kraft Heinz Company (NASDAQ:KHC) stands against other defensive dividend stocks to buy during market sell off. The importance of defensive dividend stocks only becomes clear when the broader market is taking a hit. The S&P is down nearly 8% in a month while Nasdaq has lost over 11.41%. Investors are wondering how to protect themselves from volatility and the answer lies in defensive stocks. Here is a key distinction investors must understand. Growth stocks rely on price appreciation to generate shareholder returns, something that is hard to achieve when the broader market is facing a severe sell-off. Dividend stocks, on the other hand, became more attractive. They not only help reduce the volatility but as their price goes down, their yield becomes more attractive. We therefore decided to identify the best stocks for such a scenario. To come up with the list of 10 defensive dividend stocks to buy during a market sell-off, we only considered stocks belonging to the Consumer Defensive sector with a market cap of at least $2 billion and a dividend yield of at least 3%. A closeup of an assembly line worker inspecting a newly produced jar of condiments and sauces. The Kraft Heinz Company manufactures and sells beverages and food products globally. The company is well known for its sauces and condiments, especially the globally known 'Heinz Ketchup'. The company's stock has an attractive dividend yield of 5.29%. KHC is one of those stocks that enjoys the backing of Warren Buffet's Berkshire Hathaway. However, it has disappointed investors for years, trading sideways for about 5 years now. However, with the broader market trading at record valuations, a 5.29% yield is better than putting your money in the bank. But that's not why investors should buy this stock. The business is improving and here's how. During the last 5 years, the company has continuously paid down its debt, reducing it by one-third approximately. The negative effects of the debt are further reduced by an improved operating cash flow. The cash flow to debt ratio has increased from 0.1 to 0.2 in 5 years, showcasing how the company has reduced its debt risk. At a 16.2% cash flow to sales ratio, investing for the turnaround is worth it. Any little price appreciation will add significantly to the already strong dividend yield. Overall, KHC ranks 1st on our list of defensive dividend stocks to buy during market sell off. While we acknowledge the potential of KHC as a leading investment, our conviction lies in the belief that some AI stocks hold greater promise for delivering higher returns, and doing so within a shorter time frame. If you are looking for an AI stock that is as promising as KHC but that trades at less than 5 times its earnings, check out our report about the cheapest AI stock.

Heinz introduces a new, limited edition "Heinz Chip Dip"
For Pittsburghers, there is no choice when it comes to ketchup other than Heinz. Whether it's for fries, hashbrowns, eggs, or anything in between, Heinz ketchup is usually on the side. Now, they're offering ketchup lovers a new way to enjoy their favorite condiment. Heinz Chip Dip is a limited-edition, wide-mouth jar which can be used for chips! "Fries and ketchup have always been a beloved combination, but for some reason, the potato chip has long been overlooked," said Keenan White, Senior Brand Communications Manager for Heinz. "It truly makes no sense…as fried potatoes of any kind, they're both equally deserving of being dipped in Heinz Ketchup. Chip Dip is all about embracing fans' irrational love for ketchup and giving them a new way to enjoy it." According to a survey of 1,000 Americans, nearly all of them said they dip their fries in ketchup, but less than 10% said they dip chips in ketchup, and now Heinz is changing that. Described as "pop, dip, and enjoy" Heinz Chip Dip is now available nationwide while supplies last. Heinz is also asking fans of the new product to share their review on social media using the hashtag #HeinzChipDipChallenge and have said if there's a solid enough reaction to the new product, it could go from limited edition to permanent. Check out more about the product at this link.
