IT-BIO-009 The `Curtice Brothers` cook organic ketchup from fresh tomatoes - not concentrate. The ingredients come from organic farmers whose respect for nature and tradition is already noticeable in the field and is crucial for forward-looking agriculture without chemicals. The original Curtice Brothers Company was founded in 1868 by Edgar and Simeon Curtice in Rochester, NYC. The two brothers started producing their own ketchup from their small greengrocer`s shop and successfully expanded in the USA. Unfortunately, the company was discontinued in the 1940s. A group of friends noticed on their travels that there was a lack of an alternative to bland industrially produced ketchup. So in early 2014 they decided to revive the historic Curtice Brothers brand and raise the bar for ketchup by carefully selecting and preparing fresh ingredients. Ketchup is a surprisingly simple thing. Just fresh tomatoes, apples, onions, spices and a little vinegar. Love and a lot of patience. This is how people used to cook and we think it was just good. This is why Curtice Brothers Organic Ketchup was given a new lease of life; a ketchup from a time when there was no tomato concentrate and only fresh ingredients counted.
