Ketchup is pretty good. It’s killer with french fries, you can use it to make other condiments like BBQ and cocktail sauces, and kids seem to like it so that’s cool for parents who struggle to get their picky children to eat. But has anyone ever loved ketchup so much they thought, “You know what, I also want it in slice form, like some strange red cheese?” Yes actually, apparently someone has, because a new Kickstarter wants to bring the unusual-looking convenience of sliced ketchup to a grocery store near you.
Boâs Original Slice of Sauce has already quickly hit its funding goal of $15,000 to bring to the masses their “all-natural, no-mess ‘Slice’ of Ketchup,” which it describes as a “flavor-packed condiment offering a clean label, portable experience with 8 slices per pack.” Creator and company co-founder Emily Williams says her ketchup slice ideas was a happy accident, and it is “non-GMO, gluten-free, all-natural with no artificial flavors, preservatives, or high-fructose corn syrup.” It also doesn’t need to be refrigerated and can easily travel with you, which means you will never, ever again be caught off guard without a…..slice….of….ketchup.

That looks like a Fruit Roll-up. I don’t mean that as a criticism either, because it at least resembles a food item people enjoy eating already. And this does seem a lot neater than normal ketchup, which is a nice bonus.
So sure, despite never wanting or asking for ketchup slices, I’ll give it a shot. Ketchup is pretty good; maybe it will be even better like this.
