I don't know whether this is real or a joke, but it's sick either way.

It's real. And for the record, TH Kerry is no longer active in the company and has only a bit of stock in it. She and the Senator don't actually get a nickel when you buy Heinz ketchup.

Additionally, while I love America, I hate "American flavor", which I associate with fast food, grease, and overly-polysylabic-ingrediants-in-paces-they-shouldn't-be.

Having tasted your ketchup, my life has changed. I use it of course on meat and potatoes. But such is my addiction to it that I began the other day to use it on watermelon. You cannot imagine the taste! Tonight I will scrape away the caviar, as that dilutes the taste of W Ketchup. With all good wishes,

Yes, it really, really is real. All of it. Yayfor self-parody. Boofor stupidity.

Sick? How the heck is it sick?

Stupid? Sure.
Depressing? Granted.
WTF-inducing? Hellz yeah.

Sick? Not really.

Hi, I've been tracking (http://www.livejournal.com/users/atrustheotaku/245442.html) the syndication issue and thought you might like to know that at least one fix already exists.

In addition to my personal entry and tracking, I've posted to (http://www.livejournal.com/community/lj_dev/681766.html) lj_dev about the situation and a poll (http://www.livejournal.com/users/atrustheotaku/245739.html) regarding the two proposed solutions.
