Heinz for me. We also usually have Tiptree in the fridge as someone likes that one.

I was always a Heinz girl but now Lidl all the way especially as my kids eat it now too.

I can semi cope with non heinz ketchup but I cant compromise on heinz salad cream and it has to be the reduced fat one

Ketchup is always Heinz, so is Salad cream. But Mayo has to be Hellmans, brown sauce can only be HP and beans must be Branston.

Aldi own brand. I think it's called Bramwells

Marks and Spencer by a country mile. Tried various supermarket brands and heinz but as soon as I tried M&S I've never gone back. Will go out of my way to get it.

My husband didn't like M&S ketchup, he said it was too sweet.

Always always Heinz. Same for beans. Hellmans for mayo. I never veer away from these.
The Stokes one is often what’s offered at restaurants and it takes like BO to me (or like the smell of it, obviously I’ve not tasted it myself!).

Heinz is just so expensive so I buy own brand

But i do think its the best

Missred121 · Yesterday 20:07

Hellman's. It's the only one I've found so far that isn't too sweet or vinegary.

My DH is a ketchup fan, always used to have to be Heinz but now won’t touch anything other than M&S, it’s so cheap as well!

The ketchup eaters in our house like Heinz .

SpottyAlpaca · Yesterday 20:17

M&S. Better & cheaper than Heinz. But brown sauce has to be HP or divorce would ensue. It’s absolutely essential on his sausage sandwiches.

I like Daddies but can’t always get it, Heinz second choice.

Yellowsubmarine55 · Yesterday 21:07

Hellman's for us

Fozzleyplum · Yesterday 21:15

Mutti is the best I've tried.

Borborygmus · Yesterday 21:31

Hellmann's. I did try M&S once but it has a very high sugar content and is way too sweet.

Lykke1000 · Yesterday 21:33

Pikantny - just so much tastier than all the rest. And im not Polish 😀

MeetMeOnTheCorner · Yesterday 21:56

Daylesford Organic, Mr Organic or Stokes.

bgi · Yesterday 22:00

I love daddies although it is quite sweet, I think it's perfect for a bacon sandwich!

Heyhelga · Yesterday 22:02

Rarely use it to be honest. Mostly just for thickening my home made spag bol so I just buy own brand.

IwanttoWFH · Yesterday 22:10

Lidl or Aldi. Can’t stand Heinz (it’s too sweet), ketchup from cafes always tastes like vinegar. Have tried other supermarket own brands and dislike those, too!

Isyesterdaytomorrowtoday · Yesterday 22:13

M&S own

Culpeper · Yesterday 22:14

We rarely buy ketchup, but if we do (in summer for barbecues), it’s Stokes. Mayo is Kewpie.

M&S. Cheap and tasty

This.

Kickinthenostalgia · Yesterday 22:34

Heinz for ketchup. We’ve done the taste test and proved we know our brands and it just can not be any other ketchup… one thing I won’t back down on whilst looking for alternatives… Daddies for brown though 😃
