Heinz Drops Ketchup & Mayonnaise Mixed Sauce

Heinz has dropped a ketchup and mayonnaise mixed sauce dubbed ‘Saucy Sauce,’ which is the perfect topping for those indecisive few. 

The American food company has confirmed the combo sauce will be heading over to British stores this year, including Tesco.

Saucy Sauce will be available to buy from August 23 at the cost of £2.69.

Since the exciting news has been confirmed, foodies have been buzzing on social media.

One commented: “I’ll give it a go!”

Another added: “I hope it’s as good as their Baconnaise that was on sale last year.”

However, others were quick to point out that the sauce already exists, but is referred to as a Marie Rose dressing or seafood sauce.

“Isn’t that just seafood sauce for prawn cocktails alike?” a person asked.

Pitching in, another said: “I mean, I’ve been told all my life that if you mix tomato ketchup and mayonnaise sauce it just makes seafood sauce for the prawn cocktail at Christmas – so what is this?”

So far, Heinz has yet to comment on how the two sauces can be differentiated.

It’s taken quite a long time to have Saucy Sauce made available in British stores, as there have been issues with trademark laws.

But if the sauce becomes a success, it’s likely we may get some over US favourites, such as ‘Mayocue’, which is a mixture of mayonnaise and barbeque sauce.
