[Obamarama]

If you want a very laugh-inducing start to your Saturday morning you should take a cyber-spin over to the "W" Ketchup site and read the comments page. Check some of these out: (my comments in bold)

-snip-

Thank you, thank you, thank you, for: a little excited over a damned bottle of ketchup, aren't ya sweetheart?
1. making a quality product available so we won't buy that other stuff from Heinz Their choice in ketchup probably didn't become a moral cause in her pretty little head until this company trotted this ridiculous prodct out in the first place
2. making a point about the overseas production when the Kerry's make much of that of others
3. making funds available for a very unselfish cause and much needed, and exactly how MUCH from each sale is going to the scholarship fund? As long as it's only one or two cents, they can make that claim. Like that is going to make a huge difference!?
4. love your logo and product promotional info — will tell all our friends and family about your site and product! sounds like the makings for a really bad TV commercial: "Oh, Madge, have you heard about the new "W" Ketchup....?
God bless America, our President, our Soldiers, and you folks — we will keep you lifted up in our prayers for success— for all the above reasons. ...and Jaysus, please protect the ketchup people We've ordered a case — to start — look forward to receiving it — will be presents to our family and friends — will order more later.... wouldn't you just love to be on THEIR gift list?
— J.W. & G.W., Cheboygan, MI

Great item and I love your pitch. I ordered a case and will slug it with some USA Prime Beef down upon arrival! God Bless America.
— S.S., New York City KETCHUP ON STEAK? GASP! Don't let the Mad Cow hit ya in the ass on our way outta the barn there, Goober.

Thanks for filling the ketchup void for us patriots!! Great label, too!— M.E. The KETCHUP VOID!!?? I think the only void she has in her life is the one lurking between her two ears.

-snip-

...In any case, you seem to have a rather balanced product here, and I intend to purchase some upon receiving my next paycheck.
— V.G. Uh, pick up the clue phone, bubba. If you have to wait until your next paycheck to buy a bottle of damned ketchup you're hitting for the wrong team."

And as Forrest Gump said, "That's all I've got to say about that."

1. And Heinz is mostly a GOP donor, isn't it? *lol*

[olddem43]

2. Ketchup on Steak is stupid but PRIME beef?

How dumb can they get? Dumb enough to pay 5 dollars for a 99 cent bottle, I guess.

[liberalmuse]

7. Wanna bet...

the Ben and Jerry guys are behind this 'W' ketchup? I'm going to get on that 'W' -shaped 'freedom' fries idea and make a fortune! Suckas!

[Jokerman]

3. Classic

I love your comment:

"Uh, pick up the clue phone, bubba. If you have to wait until your next paycheck to buy a bottle of damned ketchup you're hitting for the wrong team."

Also like the one I saw on DU the other day: "If I had a dollar for every time Rush Limbaugh has lied, I'd benefit from the Bush tax cuts."

[Zen]

4. Stupid 'pubs, mine as well be pubes.

"Heinz" is a Republican company!!

Oh, and someone tell those FUCKING MORONS that "French fries" were invented in BELGIUM!

[liberalmuse]

5. W Ketchup, the food of the gods.

Who knew? If there's anyone up there, PLEASE, save us from ourselves...

LOL, funny stuff! Like shooting fish in a barrel.

[greenbriar]

14. damn...3 bucks a bottle

heck I pay 57 cents for mine.

I was going to buy a bottle to save and use when W goes home, but not at 3 bucks a bottle


that is almost hiway robbery

[displacedtexan]

6. Supporting Bush* makes you look stupid!

Here's the proof:

H. J. Heinz Company Confirms Its Widely Held Public Ownership
And Non-Partisan Status
Pittsburgh, PA, March 22, 2004 – In light of some misleading speculation, the H. J.
Heinz Company would like to make clear that neither Mrs. Teresa Heinz Kerry, Senator
John Kerry nor any member of their family is involved in the management or board of the
H. J. Heinz Company (NYSE:HNZ). They have no involvement in the Heinz® Ketchup
business or any of the company’s other brands or products.
The H. J. Heinz Company, in accordance with its corporate governance policies, is a non-partisan
organization.
Neither Mrs. Heinz Kerry nor Senator Kerry nor any of the Heinz trusts or endowments –
either individually or collectively – holds a significant percentage of shares of the H. J.
Heinz Company. In 1995 the Heinz Endowments and family trusts sold a large
percentage of Heinz shares in a secondary share offering to diversify their holdings. As a
result, their current holdings are under 4 percent.
There is no connection between any philanthropic programs of the H. J. Heinz Company
and its Foundation and the Heinz family interests (including the Howard Heinz
Endowment, the Vira Heinz Endowment, and the Heinz Family Philanthropies).
Currently, 60% of the sales of the H. J. Heinz Company are outside the United States and
to accommodate those customers by providing facilities closer to those markets, the
company maintains a number of overseas facilities that provide products for consumers in
those markets. This allows Heinz to pack the freshest ingredients, tailor its recipes to
local tastes and deliver the final products in a timely and efficient manner. In the United
States, Heinz makes its flagship ketchup in factories in Fremont, Ohio; Muscatine, Iowa;
and Stockton, California.
NOTES TO EDITORS:
• H. J. Heinz Company was founded in 1869 by Henry John Heinz, a native
of the Pittsburgh area. For 135 years, the Heinz Company has stood for
pure foods and great taste. It remains headquartered in Pittsburgh,
Pennsylvania. Today, its Chairman, President and CEO is William R.
Johnson.
• The last Heinz family member to be involved in management with the
company was H. J. “Jack” Heinz II, who served as the company’s
chairman until his death in 1987. Since that time, no family member has
been employed by the company and none has served on its board of
directors.
• The late Senator H. John Heinz III (Pennsylvania – Republican) did work
briefly in the 1960s in the company’s marketing department before
embarking upon his career in politics. He was tragically killed in a
helicopter accident in 1991.

Bwahhhaaaaa! Bwahhhaaaaa!

8. Some of these suckers will fall for anything.

A tiny bit of research is all it would take for them to discover that Teresa Heinz has VERY little stock in the company anymore, and has NOTHING to do with the day-to-day running of the business. What idiots.

[Sparkly]

9. Is this supposed to be the Chimp?

[Cats Against Frist]

10. So, have these people not heard of Hunts or Del Monte?

Or any one of hundreds of off-brand varieties of ketchup? Further -- haven't we already established that Heinz is a GOP-favoring corporation?

These people ARE straight gomers.

[parasim]

11. The inane thing is,

according to the FAQ, the "W" stands for "Washington". uh huh, right, sure it does.

[diamond14]

12. hahaha...and Senator Heinz and his father were all reTHUGlicans

so, it's difficult and their little brains are exploding, while they attempt to eat their own....



Thank you for giving us a delicious American alternative to the standard Heinz Ketchup. Henry Heinz may have been a great American, but I have absolutely no interest in supporting The Kerry's anti-American causes.
— S.S., Akron, OH



This is a great idea for a great President. — P.B.

Thanks for an alternative to the "other" ketchup. I was starting to feel guilty putting that stuff on my hotdogs ......Sincerely,
— Mrs. D.P., Worthington, Ohio


I think the timing is meaningful since it was our late, beloved President Ronald Reagan who proclaimed that, yes, ketchup can be counted as a vegetable. As a ketchup-loving, red-blooded American gal, I couldn't agree more!
— V.W.D., Longmont, Colorado


Thanks for filling the ketchup void for us patriots!!....— M.E.

Dear Patriots, Saw your new product and what an answer to our prayers!! We haven't purchased a Heinz product for almost a year. We did transgress slightly about 2 weeks ago when our local store ran a coupon for a free bottle of Heinz ketchup, and in a brief moment of weakness, we used the coupon. But we had to tear off the label before setting the bottle on the table. Seeing that name on the bottle would have been a constant guilty reminder of our "straying from the fold". Sincerely,
— E & D from Akron, Ohio

13. Well, I'm gonna quit drinkin Busch Beer. So There!

[billybob537]

18. Yeah me too,

Bush Beans is a cousin of shrub.

[Gildor Inglorion]

15. What pathetic, empty lives these people must have!

I can't even imagine devoting so much time, effort, and space (let alone IMPORTANCE) to such a trivial subject. I mean, ketchup? Now, if we were talking about mayonnaise, that's totally different. Some things are worth fighting - nay, worth dying! - for. Give me Hellmann's, or give me death!

[neuvocat]

16. I just sent them a comment:

"Do you think Bush is smart enough to eat your ketchup without choking on it?"

[TlalocW]

17. I sent this in for their comments section

Okay, over on the right, some guy is so excited about a new brand of ketchup that he's going to eat it on prime beef. Dude! I know that having a conservative brand of ketchup is sending you into epileptic fits of high school girl-like giddiness, but ketchup (no matter what the brand) is for French (I'm sorry - Freedom) fries, hamburgers, and hot dogs. Don't ruin a good cut of meat by putting tomato goop on it.

And just to add to the fire, I see that you advertise your ketchup as being made "using techniques passed down through the generations." How many generations? I'd like to know how far back using corn syrup and dehydrated onions goes.

And one last parting shot - Salsa outsells all other condiments including ketchup and has for the past several years. Shouldn't you people be supporting Pace? It's made in Texas - unlike Bush who is a Connecticut blueblood pretending to be a cowboy. Where are the W Ketchup people located? New York City??? Get a rope. Oh, wait. Ohio. Never mind.

[neuvocat]

19. That was excellent.

Wish I thought to say something like that.

[qanda]

20. Republicans have to be the biggest fools ever created

They are being used and they don't even realize it. I don't care who Heinz supports, they make the best ketchup and that why I buy it.

[iwillalwayswonderwhy]

21. The W Ketchup FAQ

Has the actual gall to say the "W" stands for "Washington".

Too funny.

[Commie Pinko Dirtbag]

22. My mail to them:

Your FAQ says
"What does the 'W' stand for?
The 'W' stands for 'Washington'."

Do you honestly expect anyone to believe that? Oh, wait - I forgot who your clientele is. They'll literally swallow anything.

[Jade Fox]

23. "you seem to have a rather balanced product here" Its KETCHUP!

How unbalanced could it get? How much concentrated analysis can
one give a condiment?

I think these people heard Reagan define ketchup as a vegetable in
the 80's and this is the result: Condiment Patriotism!

[opihimoimoi]

24. All this Dust is from small minds, usually impaired due to multiple

falls from small horses outside the supermart, the ones ya gatta put a quarter in.

For us to diss the French and now the Heinz...is SO revealing of chilish minds its almost incomprehensible they are in the friggen White House.
