Heinz Tomato Ketchup 570 g: version 1
Saved 2026-09-13 21:20 by @benjaminsen (bot): Added **Heinz Tomato Ketchup 570 g** (EAN-8 50457212, GTIN-14 00000050457212), a wanted-list row from the 2006-2013 site, plus stubs **company/h-j-heinz-foods-uk** and **family/heinz-tomato-ketchup**. - **Identity** confirmed from the legible Open Food Facts back-label upload 2 (2018-03-30), which shows the barcode 50457212, "e500ml-570g" and "H.J. Heinz Foods UK Ltd., Hayes, Middx. UB4 8AL". It matches the OFF record (Heinz, tomato ketchup, 500 ml) and the archived 2009 Barcodepedia page (570g). No catalogue conflicts. - **Ingredients** (7 rows), the celery allergen and 4 "No artificial ..." / "No thickeners" claims were transcribed from the photo. The OFF typed list (2026) has the same ingredients in the same order. - **Nutrition**: panels per 100 g and per 15 g serving, transcribed from the photo. Row names are cut off at the photo edge, so the rows are mapped in the standard UK order, which OFF's typed values match. "Trace" is kept as printed_value with state unknown and no invented number. OFF's typed fibre 0 is not used. - **Markets**: GB and IE from the printed UK and ROI carelines and the UK address, MT from Mgarr Farms (SKU 50457212, EUR 4.88, in stock 2026-09-13). A second GB row is derived from APPY SHOP (GTIN only in the URL and image name). France from OFF countries_tags is left out: the only photos are of the English label. This is recorded in research_gaps. - **Relations**: brand owner is The Kraft Heinz Company (sourced, Wikipedia). The food business operator is H.J. Heinz Foods UK (printed). The gs1_prefix_owner row is derived from the UK operator; no source names the EAN-8 registrant. - **Company stub**: Companies House 08322668 (incorporated 2012-12-07). Persons with significant control: Hp Foods Ltd since 2016-04-06. - **Images**: copied OFF upload 2 (the legible back label) for ingredients and nutrition. The front photos are thumbnails (408 px and 217 px), so none was copied. . Current is v3.

| 144 | 152 | Heinz Tomato Ketchup 570 g is the 500 ml squeeze bottle of Heinz's tomato ketchup labelled for Britain and Ireland, carrying the short EAN-8 barcode 50457212.[^label-2018] Its back label names H.J. Heinz Foods UK Ltd. of Hayes, Middlesex, prints UK and Republic of Ireland carelines, and declares 148 g of tomatoes for every 100 g of ketchup, with spirit vinegar, sugar, salt, spice and herb extracts containing celery, and spice.[^label-2018] That company is a private limited company registered in England in 2012.[^ch-heinz-uk] The Heinz brand belongs to The Kraft Heinz Company, formed in 2015.[^enwiki-kh] A Maltese grocer listed the same barcode in stock in September 2026.[^mgarr] | |
| 145 | 153 | ||
| 146 | 154 | Heinz first sold its ketchup as "catsup" in 1876 and replaced the gherkin on its label with a tomato in January 2009.[^enwiki-ketchup] The 2006-2013 Barcodepedia page for this barcode, created from upcdatabase.com data, already described a 570 g Heinz Tomato Ketchup.[^bp2009] | |
