McMai Blackchup Ketchup
A Game-Changing Black Ketchup with a Complicated Past
summarizeEditor's Summary
I stumbled upon BlackChup's black ketchup while browsing Lenta, and I'm super glad I did. The first thing that caught my eye was the unique, dark color, which is achieved using activated charcoal as a food coloring. This makes the ketchup safer to eat and gives it a really cool aesthetic. The price is super affordable at 67 rubles for a small 270-gram bottle, and the ingredient list is decent, with cornstarch as a thickener and Tabasco pepper and sweet Thai pepper as flavor enhancers. I was a bit hesitant about the spiciness, but it's actually pretty mild, and you can always add milk or sour cream to tone it down if needed. Overall, I'm really impressed with this product and think it's worth trying out.
