    I honestly feel like if this wasn’t regulated ketchup would slowly be watered down until it was just weak tomato juice.

      Doesn’t stop you from adding modified corn starch to it until it’s a weak tomato pudding/gravy. Wait, that’s what they already do. High quality ketchup was originally a jam (reduction of tomato fruit).

      You’re very optimist if you expect ketchup to have any hint of tomatoes if regulations didn’t exist.

      It would be tap water, sugar and red food colouring.
