National Ketchup Day is Thursday, June 5th
GREENVILLE, N.C. (WNCT) — National Ketchup Day is June 5th and it tops mustard and mayo in Smash Kitchen survey.
According to a Smash Kitchen survey, 89% say Ketchup is their go-to beating mustard, mayo, and BBQ sauce.
Key takeaways from Smash Kitchen's Ketchup Index (link to the full survey HERE):
Flavor matters, but so do healthy ingredients:
86% prefer condiments made with wholesome ingredients.
64% try to avoid GMOs in their foods — yet 64% also admit they don't really know what's in their sauces… it's all about the taste.
Dipping wins:
74% prefer dipping over pour-over sauces (just 13% like their sauce on top).
Ketchup still leads
but spicy and blended sauces are gaining ground — especially good news for Smash Kitchen's Hot Honey Ketchup, the perfect mix of both.
