    Well, I guess I can't speak SPECIFICALLY for Purple, but the green Ketchup has sold quite nicely, and market projections for other colors has been very good as well. I read an article about this WAY before they even came out with green Ketchup (like a year before) talking about the test marketing for various colors, and how well it had done. And I know that the nationwide debut of green has sold nicely, so I imagine purple will as well.

    Heck, you know some people will buy a bottle just to see it. It's like a social taboo to those of us who assume Ketchup is red. We just want to see it and taste it. In fact, I think I'm gonna pick up some green Ketchup tomorrow . . .

    I bet there's an Aggie behind this somehow.

    Damn, I'd rather eat Buffalo testicles.

    I doubt any of you were ideal for the focus group to begin with. [​IMG]

    This is pure kid stuff; I blame Nickelodeon. But hey, it's all good. I'm trying to hold off the point where I'm walking around muttering 'damn kids and their crazy (whatever)' for as long as possible.

    Well, at least we don't live in Holland, where they put mayo on their french fries

    haven, people aren't too liberal about their ketchup preferences, are they?

    That purple ketchup looks gross. Red is the way to go for me. No green, purple, blue, black, brown, yellow, orange, etc. The norm is the way to go.

    I'd buy blue.

    This basically goes all the way back to our cartoon days. Everyone associates to a color. You remember, voltron, Power rangers, and stuff like that. For me, it's always been blue.

    They are also producing a line of multi-colored oatmeal -- one is "ocean blue" or something like that, with little candy sea horses and stars. It looks really nasty.

    But kids love it.
