I purchased a bottle of Heinz ketchup on Wednesday, January 23, 2024 at B & D Market in Olivia, MN. I took pictures when a went to use it. Upon taking the cover off to take the seal off the top it fell off and ketchup was hardened around the neck of the bottle. This leaves me to believe it did not have a safe seal & would the ketchup be safe. I’m wondering how this got past inspection.

I purchased a 30 oz. jar of Miracle Whip from Target on December 19, 2023. My adult son opened it and said it didn't smell right. I could tell immediately that it was the smell of rancid oil. The best use date was 02May2024. I returned it and was hoping to get a different date but that was all they had. Upon opening, this was also rancid. Evidently it is a...

Heinz tomatoes ketchup 855gm

Heinz Product tampering

Africa

The product I bought at Chandarana Nanyuki hade been tampered with. The sauce was really liquid and sugary
I shall not be purchasing Heinz again until reassurance they have non corruptible quality control personnel.
KEBS is acorrupt and corruptable entity.
Quality goods like Heinz will be let down in Kenya and other products fill vacuum

If Heinz wants to maintain credibility you might need stricter controls and more effective monitoring!

Heinz ketchup

Heinz has the commercial showing wiener dogs between a hot dog bun to be eaten. This advertisement is supporting the meat market using dogs and also animal cruelty. Some mentally disturbed person will try and kill this animal and stuff it between a hot dog bun and EAT it! Gross!

This commercial airs several times a day in Atlanta, Georgia on Directv. I think that the commercial is very inappropriate and just may cause some mentally ill person to think that it is alright to eat a dog.

i feel i was wrongfully fired. worked for company for 4 years ASKED to be a Quality Assurance Tech, had pride in my work went in one day and was job eliminated and put back into production losing $4 an hour. did various odd jobs wherever they needed a monkey. anyway was given a drug test on 6/8 the lab recieved on 6/13 and reported i was positive for Amphetamines- most likely diet pills. There is NO way anything should have shown up on the test since I am 100% clean. It took me 2 days and numerous calls to work nurse to even get results. nevertheless I was shocked at results. terminated as a result. I was told I could have sample retested at another lab for $200 but they would not allow me to re pee. spoke to HR honcho who said they followed protocol and yadda yadda bye, bye. bunch of BS. The co just put 31 people on part time after laying off a bunch more which came unannounce. I think it's just a matter of time no matter who you are or your senority or quality of work before your out the door

I'm probably gonna get sued for this, but... Heinz vinegar, and everything that is placed in, is disgusting, bug infested, darco filled mess.. Anyone who purchases it is taking a risk on their health.

The filtered white vinegar isn't even distilled, it is passed through a heat exchanger which pasteurizes it. The Vinegar processing department in the Holland Michigan plant is a disgusting place to see. There are gnats and bugs constantly in the product and the employees don't even know the meaning of GMP's. I came from another food manufacturing plant when I came to Heinz . They were bad but Heinz took the cake. Yes the 100 year old wooden tanks give the vinegar it's flavor, but the disgusting condition of the buildings and unsanitary conditions would make any consumer or even a FDA inspector vomit.

Ask them about how clean their vinegar department is in the Holland plant and if the FDA has ever been there to discuss the cobwebs, bugs, and rats that are constantly having contact with their "distilled" vinegar.

I was fired for taking a day off because of my grandmother passing away. Heinz is a great place to work in a few small ways, but a terrible place to work for the most part

Wow, you should really talk to an attorney about the whole thing! You have rights, and they violated a bunch of laws by ignoring you and preventing an investigation. If you need an affordable attorney, let me know and I can send you to someone I know...
