Heinz, the trusty creators of the condiment, have decided to put an end to the tomato sauce storage mystery, revealing the perfect spot to maintain that classic tomatoey flavour we all cherish.
This saucy revelation occurred on social media, where enthusiastic followers flocked to participate, posing intriguing questions and sharing their secret storage spots for the precious tomato sauce.
Leave it to Heinz to stir up the excitement by launching a clever poll, encouraging their fans to cast their votes for the ideal storage location. What started as a simple question soon transformed into a lively discussion, keeping everyone engaged.
With an air of confidence, Heinz boldly proclaimed, 'It must be... in the fridge!'
But just like adding a pinch of salt to a robust tomato sauce, this declaration stirred up a blend of reactions among the crowd. Curiosity was piqued, and fans eagerly awaited the final verdict.
After meticulously counting over 2,500 votes, it turned out the outcome was a near-even split, leaving Heinz in a bit of a pickle. But fear not, tomato sauce enthusiasts, for Heinz has at least brought this savoury debate into the spotlight, ensuring that the great tomato sauce storage conundrum continues to simmer.
'There was only ever one correct answer, and we're happy to share with Heinz Tomato Ketchup lovers that [tomato sauce] has to be in the fridge,' Heinz spokesperson Olivia Lennon told a news outlet.
'We're aware many Heinz Tomato Ketchup fans have been storing their tomato sauce in the cupboard, but we recommend refrigeration after opening. This is the best way to maintain the delicious tangy taste of our Heinz Tomato Ketchup that you know and love.'
The Heinz UK Twitter account also proved to have a sassy side, expertly juggling quirk and wit, responding to passionate fans who felt strongly about the sauce-y debate.
One witty Twitter user queried, 'Not beside my pillow?'
To which Heinz responded with a tongue-in-cheek, 'Second best place to keep it.'
Of course, the question on everyone's lips was addressed, 'So why is it on the shelves in supermarkets & shops then?'
To that, Heinz shot back with a pointed question of their own, 'Where do you keep your soft drinks, Dave?'
The thread grew heated with a third die-hard asserting: 'Never, ever has it ever gone in my fridge, nor anybody else's.' Heinz, maintaining their cool, retorted with a lighthearted, 'It does, and they do. Case (fridge) closed.'
However, a couple of tomato sauce aficionados agreed with Heinz's ultimate judgement, saying that the product needs to be chilled.
A wise one among them raised the appraisal, 'Of course it does. After opening, is this controversial?' to which Heinz responded, 'We started something… It has been a wild ride.'
