Question: What's the difference between normal ketchup and fancy ketchup!? !?
Answers:
I am a former chef and the main difference between say Heinz, Hunts and the generic supermarket ones is the ingredient quality, more sugar, starches and more vinegar, today they use tomato paste to make it, years ago when my grandmother was young, they would use whole tomato's and cook it for hours, now with the volume and production line the paste is faster, and one note someone has to make the generics for Walmart and grocery chains so it could one of the top 3 and it is just labelled and bottled differently, our minds play tricks on use when something is unfamiliar, like a bottle or label!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

Myself, I consider normal ketchup tomato-ey, like Heinz Ketchup!. Fancy ketchups have fruits and other flavorings in them, like plums, apricots, vanilla!. They are all condiments, however, and accentuate the food that you pair them with!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

there is no difference!. McDonalds packets say fancy ketchup and it definitely does not have flavors of apricots and vanilla!. it tastes the same as heinz!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

As far as I know, the only difference is that fancy ketchup comes in little single serving packets at fast food restaurants!. lol, I think it's a marketing ploy!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
