W Ketchup

For the majority of my life, Heinz ketchup has been a staple in my diet. It\’s good on hamburgers, hotdogs and french fries. But ever since discovering that Heinz ketchup is owned in part by the wife of Senator John F. Kerry, Heinz Ketchup has left a bad aftertaste in my mouth.

I don\’t support Democrats. Why should my ketchup?

Or so ask the creative folks at W Ketchup. What you have here is little more than ketchup in a bottle, but with a twist. This ketchup is patriotic, calling itself \”America\’s Ketchup\”.

They claim that Heinz ketchup not only has 57 varieties, but 57 factories in foreign nations to make the stuff. W Ketchup is all-American, with all ingredients grown in America. Not only that, but a portion of every sale is donated to the Freedom Alliance Scholarship Fund, which provides scholarships for the children of active duty service members killed in the line of duty. Now that\’s patriotic ketchup!

I love it! I wish I had thought of it. I\’ll bet these guys are making a bundle on this stuff. And they are helping a good cause along the way.

Kudos to American entrepreneurship, made possible by capitalism. Hooray for those who use their ingenuity to enter the competitive marketplace, risking time and capital, to pursue the American dream.

Go W, and go W Ketchup!
