The honest take
Heinz is the ketchup most of us grew up on, and per tablespoon it looks light at just 20 calories with zero fat. The real story is what those calories are made of, since a single tablespoon carries 4 grams of added sugar, most of it from high fructose corn syrup, alongside 190 mg of sodium. Used a spoonful at a time it is a reasonable condiment, but the sugar and salt add up fast if you pour it freely. If skipping corn syrup matters to you, cleaner tomato first ketchups do exist.
