Why do they put sugar in EVERYTHING?

[ifyouwannabemylover]

brb just want a bottle of ketchup and the second ingredient after tomatoes is sugar. if you want to avoid it, you gotta buy some vegan organic stuff that costs 3 times as much. they pump literally everything full of sugar and then wonder why people are diabetesmaxxed.

Because it’s addictive and a it’s a cheap way to enhance the flavor

if a product doesn't contain either sugar or fat it's inedible, and sugar is cheaper than fat so they usually go with that.

make your own chutney, it's easy and you can store it in a fridge for ages.

what is chutney

what is chutney

just a kind of sauce.

I make mine by fruiting onions, red peppers and garlic with some fish sauce, lemon juice and honey, chucking in the tomatoes and frying it until it's a paste, then adding some random spices of choice.

goes well with everything that goes with ketchup.
