Fry sauce lovers push back on Heinz ‘Mayochup’
Chances are, if you are from Utah, you know what fry sauce is — that delicious combination of mayonnaise and ketchup that is the perfect addition to any plate of French fries. Eating fry sauce has practically become a Utah tradition.
But, according to Heinz, its not called fry sauce.
Heinz has released its new product called Mayochup in the Middle East, but according to a tweet Thursday, they are considering bringing it the U.S.
“Want #mayochup in stores? 500,000 votes for “yes” and we’ll release it to you saucy Americans,” the post on Twitter said. The post included a poll where people could vote to “pass the Heinz Mayochup” or “Nah, I’ll make my own.”
Responses to the post on social media ranged from people willing to give it a try to people who were disgusted by the idea. There were also a group of respondents who were adamant that the product should be called fry sauce.
