Responding to requests from French’s consumers, the new French’s Tomato Ketchup is made without high-fructose corn syrup, preservatives, artificial flavors and colors, and gluten.

In response to that demand, we crafted French’s Tomato Ketchup with simple ingredients that delivers on taste at a fair value.”
