Honey-sweetened ketchup is sold in natural-food stores. It may be called imitation ketchup or be spelled a different way, because federal standards of identity require that ketchup contain a sucrose sweetener. (Despite this, some products not containing a sucrose sweetener still label themselves as ketchup.)

Now, okay, maybe I need to clarify just a bit, since the most consumed "vegetables" in America include ketchup, iceberg lettuce, and French fries. I'm talking about anything that has a leaf. I'm talking about anything that makes a crunch when you bite it. I'm talking anything that's green, red, orange, or in rare cases white (cauliflower and mushrooms). Get the point? I'm definitely not talking French fries. |

Then of course, you've got the ketchup on the burger. The ketchup has tomatoes and lots of corn syrup, so you get more sugar. And then finally you've got tons of salt in the whole thing: there's salt in the bacon, there's salt in the cheese and of course there's salt in the burger itself. So you're going to get hypertension and high blood pressure from the salt, plus you'll promote chronic dehydration of your internal organs due to excessive consumption of salt. |

You'll also find HFCS in places where you might not expect them like condiments, frozen desserts, peanut butters, salad dressings, and even ketchup. A friend recently asked me about a recipe she followed for a simple pasta sauce that called for a can of diced tomatoes. When she tasted the sauce she was puzzled by its sweetness. I suggested she check the label on the can of diced tomatoes. Sure enough, she found that it contained high-fructose corn syrup listed in the ingredients just below the Nutrition Facts panel. |

Chef Bobo began by first tossing out sugar-filled ketchup, which was "the only way many kids knew how to eat foods." Then he stopped serving bagels, which initially angered parents. Next, he taught kids about portion control by using tiny taster cups.
"Children now ask for seconds of brussels sprouts, and they're demanding different foods at home," says the chef, whose recipes for pureed cauliflower soup and rutabaga fries are at www.calhoun.org and in Chef Bobo's Good Food Cookbook. |

For example, 25% of all vegetables eaten in America are French fries, and the traditional "spices" of Americans are ketchup and mustard. Without diversity in our diets, we have lost the benefits of herbals and plant foods. These benefits cannot always be addressed by pharmaceutical drugs, which have a single target or main mechanism of action, unlike herbal supplements, which typically have multiple targets. |

Many brands of soup, pasta sauce, ketchup, mayonnaise, and peanut butter also contain sugar. Choose products that do not have sugar as an ingredient. Adding a small amount of protein or fat along with each carbohydrate serving helps most hypoglycemic diets, as it slows the rate of food passing through the stomach, causing blood sugar to increase less rapidly. Olive oil also has the ability to slow digestion in the stomach. Add 1-3 tsp of olive oil to each meal, either spreading it on the food, or eating it directly from the teaspoon. Reduce or eliminate your intake of caffeine and alcohol. |

Though as food psychologist Paul Rozin points out, the abiding "flavor principles" of a cuisine—whether lemon and olive oil in the Mediterranean, soy sauce and ginger in Asia, or even ketchup in America—make it easier for a culture to incorporate useful new foods that might otherwise taste unacceptably foreign.
Yet more than many other cultural practices, eating is deeply rooted in nature—in human biology on one side and in the natural world on the other. |

| The recommended method is to apply a 5-gram packet of gel (approximately the size of a fast-food ketchup packet) containing 50 milligrams (mg) of testosterone in the morning to the shoulders, upper arms and/or abdomen. After applying, wash hands carefully, cover the treated area with clothing and avoid bathing or swimming for six hours.
After applying either type of gel, avoid skin-to-skin contact of that area with your partner or any other family members until the gel has dried completely. Otherwise, they may experience elevated testosterone levels as well. |

You should cut out fruits, too (they're loaded with sugar), and eat only green leafy vegetables—no beets or carrots, and no tomatoes or tomato products, such as ketchup. Plus, you should drink at least eight glasses of water a day. The fluids help prevent one of the common side effects of low-carbohydrate diets—constipation. Obviously, if you start out with constipation as a primary symptom, this diet is probably not for you.
I should say a bit more about beverages, because water—while unbeatable—can get pretty boring after a few days. |

It provides the sweetness in everything from soft drinks like 7Up and root beer; fruit beverages like Snapple; and most baked goods including cookies, crackers, bread, and even ketchup. Food companies use large quantities of HFCS because it is very cheap. A single 12-ounce can of Coke or Pepsi has as much as 13 teaspoons of sugar in the form of HFCS. And because the amount of soda we drink has more than doubled since 1970 to about 56 gallons per person a year, so has the amount of HFCS we consume. In 2001, we ate or drank almost 63 pounds of it, according to the USDA. |

Heinz, the ketchup maker, is also well known within the pet food industry. It produces Gravy Train, 9 Lives, Cycle, Kibbles n Bits, Reward, and Skippy. In 1996 Heinz acquired two pet food companies, one in Canada and the other in the United States. The Canadian Company, Martin Feed Mill Limited, had operated out of a small town in Ontario for many years producing dog, cat, and livestock feed. Martin's produced Techni-Cal and Medi-Cal, and the latter sold through veterinary clinics. |

Similarly, when it comes to dressings and condiments most American kitchens are equipped with the standard ketchup, mustard, bottled dressings, and little else. My kitchen is stocked with these cultural standards as well; the natural, additive-free varieties, of course!

| They called it "ketchup" and said they wouldn't be caught dead having it around, let alone eating it.
This led to an interesting conversation about priority expenditure of time. These same women who admitted they were willing to spend hours in the kitchen creating pots of savory sauces and Italian pastries to dazzle friends, family and their refined taste buds, had complained earlier that they didn't have time to chop fresh vegetables. They were both humbled by the realization that it wasn't that they didn't have time, they just weren't making vegetables a priority. |

The pitfall to watch out for in this category is added sugars, which are present in rather large quantities in barbecue sauces, ketchup, relish toppings, and other condiments. If you start reading the labels of these condiment products, you'll be amazed to find just how much these food manufacturers rely on sugar to add taste to their products.

Henry Heinz was the first to use the term ketchup when he started advertising the product in the early 1900s; he liked the unique spelling. Other competitors slowly followed suit, the last making the change in 1988. ketchup is now consumed at the rate of seven 14-ounce bottles per person annually.
