The decision came after the biggest ketchup rival in Israel launched a campaign against Heinz, asking for the definition of ketchup to be changed. The world famous brand has been demoted to “tomato seasoning” – despite selling almost two million bottles around the world every single day.

Back in January 2015, an Israeli company called Osem wrote an open letter to retailers, stating that they had tested Heinz independently and found that it only contained 21 percent tomato concentrate.
