BOSTON (WBZ NewsRadio) — Red Sox season is back in full swing at Fenway Park and so is the condiment controversy.
Fenway fans have been saying the ketchup available for the Fenway Franks has been tasting a bit off. Some fans have taken to the internet to complain about the taste, saying it's not sweet enough and looks more like salsa than ketchup.
"I saw there was a bin over there that said no sugar, they're serving no sugar ketchup in the park," one Fenway goer said.
Since the Red Sox signed a three-year contract with True Made Foods in November 2020, Fenway has been serving gluten-free ketchup that is only sweetened with real fruits and vegetables. There are no artificial sweeteners or added sugars in their products.

WBZ's Madison Rogers asked some Fenway vendors if they would eat Fenway's ketchup on a hotdog.
"Mustard or homemade hot sauce, that's the way to go," one vendor said. Another responded with a simple "no" and a laugh.
It wasn't just about Fenway's ketchup though, as several people said they prefer mustard on sausages and hot dogs anyway.
