This is your News You do not Need podcast.
Today I'm bringing you a story so utterly unnecessary, so gloriously weird, if you actually retain this knowledge, I can only assume you either lost a bet or truly enjoy lifeās oddest trivia. So sit back, because in the ever-vibrant world of things no one actually needs to know, hereās the latest: Heinz and Smoothie King have teamed up to finally answer a question that absolutely no oneāexcept, apparently, the entire internetāwas dying to solve: is ketchup a smoothie? In a move that might inspire both curiosity and low-level existential dread, they have actually blended ketchup into a fruit smoothie, then invited people to drink it. Yes, willingly. Because nothing says healthy lifestyle like strawberries, bananas, and that squirt of comforting, tomatoey⦠viscosity. Imagine scaring your taste buds awake with a smoothie that slides merrily into your mouth, but ends with the ambiguous tang of summer cookouts and cafeteria fries. Is it a fruit drink? Is it condiment-based performance art? Or is this just a cry for help from a food scientist with a little too much creative freedom and, possibly, unresolved issues with tomatoes?
If the aroma of ketchup-infused banana puree isnāt wild enough, the press release for this concoction tackled the "ketchup is a smoothie" debate head-on. A debate I assure you is real, because the internet has officially run out of things worth fighting about. It started with people online pointing out that, technically, ketchup is just blended fruitāer, vegetableāokay, itās a tomato, with sugar and a squirt of vinegar. Throw in a blender, add ice, itās a smoothie, right? Congratulations, society: we have just gaslighted the English language to give you a smoothie you can put on a hot dog.
Naturally, all this is limited-edition, because no corporation on earth will risk its reputation for more than a week over a drink that tastes uncannily like a 3AM college dare. Picture ordering the āKetchup Smoothieā on purpose at your local Smoothie King. Youāll feel the stares. Youāll hear the silent judgment as people wonder if you lost a bet, misplaced your taste buds, or simply believe lunch should come with a side of chaos. And somewhere, a food safety inspector quietly updates their LinkedIn profile.
I havenāt even hinted at the secondhand joy this brings. Someone had to blend this. Someone else stood in a lab, sipping thoughtfully, and declared, āYes, this will definitely go viral.ā And the best part: somewhere, a marketing team tried very hard to keep a straight face at the pitch meeting. Is this health food? Is this a prank? Or is this the food-based equivalent of āFlorida Man Tries Yoga With A Crocodileā?
So next time youāre in line, debating between healthy kale, or fresh pineapple, just remember: thereās a small but real chance someone will say, āGive me the Heinzberry Smoothie.ā If that person is you, congratulations. You live on the chaotic edge of culinary innovationāand possibly gastrointestinal regret. But now, whenever someone asks you if ketchup is a smoothie, you have the answer. And if they ask why you know that, blame me.
