Nobody I know gives a single thought to ketchup brands, Heinz or otherwise. Grab whatever is on the shelf, you'll have half a dozen choices. Never in my life have I heard that Heinz is better or higher quality. Just another brand.

But hey I live in the Midwest. Maybe the Heinz ketchup marketing juggernaut passed us by.

What is this childish meme of cute redundant commenting? Where does it come from?

You have something to say here, say it. Plainly. Without the snark or superior attitude. Take that somewhere else; we won't miss it.
