idk, isn't GenZ still obsessed with Shrek?
Shrek spans the Ages like nothing else
Shrek is love, Shrek is life
Aren't we all still obsessed with Shrek though?
Green ketchup was such a mind fuck! It was exciting though.
That's so racist.
It's called ketchup of colour.
I remember the purple ketchup vividly. Such a weird disconnect in my head between the color and the flavor.
What was the flavor like? I’ve never tried any of them.
I mean it tasted like Heinz ketchup, but slightly off. The only way I can explain it is how ketchups from different fast food restaurants all taste slightly different. The problem though was that you’re getting ketchup flavor from purple (or green, blue, orange, teal) goop.
Also Heinz marketed it to kids, but moms are the ones who grocery shop, and they didn’t want to buy their kids more expensive candy-looking ketchup, so the product failed.
I seem to remember them just tasting like ketchup. Like, just the color was different.
we love the green taste of shrek :3
I remember when this came out I wanted to try it so bad but my parents said it would make the food look gross and refused to buy it lol
The purple one made me stop eating ketchup for like 5 years. The color and taste broke my brain
Colored ketchup was actually awesome.
Today's fortnite generate doesn't even know! We used to have full on retail toys in the happy meals.
Wife and I bought the Purple one until they were gone….
