Banana ketchup can borrow tomato ketchup’s color
Philippine banana ketchup is made with bananas, sugar, vinegar and spices. Its natural color is brownish-yellow, but it is often dyed red to resemble tomato ketchup. A familiar-looking condiment can have a very different fruit at its center.
The color does not reveal the main ingredient.
