Random Food Fact: Ketchup Aficionado Edition

I'm not too picky about what ketchup I use. If it's red, I'm cool with it. But if you're really picky about that condiment, then here's some information for you.

"Even in America, not all ketchups are created equal, not even all Heinz’s. Heinz’s “best if used by“ date is exactly 15 months after the day of manufacture. The best ketchups are made between Aug. 1 and Sept. 30, when tomatoes are ripest in middle America. So, aficionados, look for “use by” dates in November and December."
