Do you want 'Mayochup'?

Do you want 'Mayochup'?

Mayonnaise plus ketchup equals... Mayochup?

Would anyone want mayo and ketchup blended together in the same bottle? Heinz is posing the question.

The company is asking condiment lovers on Twitter .

The poll is underway through Sunday. More than 500,000 votes had been cast as of Thursday afternoon — with 55 percent in favor, and 45 percent saying "Nah, I'll make my own."

"If the poll closes with 500,000 votes in its favor, the brand will bring Heinz Mayochup to the United States," the company said in a press release.


Mayochup apparently already is available internationally, but not in the United States. Who knew Americans were so deprived?

It's been available only in Persian Gulf states since 2016.

"This is a condiment for all occasions — whether dipping fries, dressing a burger, or making a sandwich," Heinz Marketing Director Nicole Kulwicki said. "We've seen a fierce debate on Twitter, with over 200,000 already voting yes, it's looking like Heinz Mayochup has a strong chance of launching!"

If the vote comes out favorably, what to call it in the states will also be put up for a vote before its release, the company said.

Or Russian dressing if the ketchup ratio is a little higher.

French dressing is ketchup plus olive oil, lemon juice, tomato paste, and brown sugar.

Along the way I discovered the power of (lack of) eye appeal and I stopped.

It's a great combination but the name sounds like something you'd barf. How about "Heinz Sauce" like the British HP sauce.

Mayo and sugar, sure. French dressing also a no. So many sites get these copycat recipes wrong.

The actual ingredients:

Soybean Oil, Pickle Relish (Diced Pickles, High Fructose Corn Syrup, Sugar, Vinegar, Corn Syrup, Salt, Calcium Chloride, Xanthan Gum, Potassium Sorbate [Preservative], Spice Extractives, Polysorbate 80), Distilled Vinegar, Water, Egg Yolks, Onion Powder, Spices, Salt, Propylene Glycol Alginate, Sodium Benzoate (Preservative), Mustard Bran, Sugar, Garlic Powder, Vegetable Protein (Hydrolyzed Corn, Soy and Wheat), Caramel Color, Extractives of Paprika, Soy Lecithin, Turmeric (Color), Calcium Disodium EDTA (Protect Flavor).

So, Ketchup, Mayo, and sweet pickle relish...

If you order French fries or tater tots at any of the more local burger eateries in northern Utah or Idaho, you WILL get fry sauce with your order whether you like it or not. (Fortunately, I do like it!)
