Did you know that Trump is distantly related to the Heinz family? Both families have a common ancestor named Johann Paul Trump (1727–1792)

Much prefer this to the Canuck method of upside-down.
Spent an hour trying to balance a tabasco sauce yesterday.

What's a European alternative that still has the same vinegar flavor of Heinz? Not a big fan of Felix.

Felix plus some vinegar?

Simple way to signal american products if you want to participate in the boycott.

In case you're out of the loop on the whole thing, there have been a number of countries signalling the same thing but by turning products upside down. That's why this one is referred to differently "the Swedish way"
