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.

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"
