Have to say it's the Lidl "Batts" ketchup here. It won a blind taste test on "Eat Well For Less" last year and yes, it's much nicer than the Heinz. It does come in a squeezy bottle tho. We don't like brown sauce here, prefer BBQ sauce. Most BBQ sauces tend to be pretty well much of a muchness, so I buy whatever's on offer.
But things like jam, marmite, mustard - that's gotta come out of a jar.
Generally when it comes to jam, marmalade, fruit butter, chutney and such, it's all homemade here, for the most part made fruit from the garden. Can't remember the last time I went and *bought* a jar... Mint sauce - there are two versions here. One made with fresh mint from the garden, sugar and vinegar, the other made as a jelly using bramleys, fresh mint, sugar and my secret ingredient, a couple of peppermint tea bags.
