Beat me to it in saying this, however I will extend that suggestion to say make your own vinegar to go in the ketchup. You can make so many tasty different vinegars.
My wife just made a batch of ketchup with the recipe below after our local stores were temporarily out of French’s. It tastes pretty good, at least as good as French’s or Heinz, and she likes that she could reduce the sugar and use organic tomato paste.
You should try making your own sometime. It’s crazy good.
