A genuine classic, not a gimmick.
Banana ketchup is a genuine condiment, not a novelty — it was invented in the Philippines during a WWII tomato shortage, when banana puree stepped in for tomato and the sweeter, deeper result stuck around long after the shortage ended.
It's built for the same jobs as regular ketchup — a squeeze bottle on the table, a dip, a burger topper — only better on richer food, especially fried chicken, burgers and chips, where the extra sweetness and depth cuts through the fat instead of just sitting on top of it.
Right now this shelf holds one option, and it's a proper one: Fancy Hank's Banana Ketchup Sauce, made in Melbourne using the real Filipino method rather than a novelty spin on the name.
The tag list backs that up too — it's built mild rather than hot, so it works as a genuine family condiment, not just a novelty bottle for the adventurous. What makes it worth stocking is that authenticity — it's cooked the way the original was, not a tomato ketchup with banana flavouring added on top.
It's vegan and preservative free too, so it covers more tables than a standard tomato ketchup would. A genuine classic, not a gimmick.
Banana ketchup is a sweet, tangy Filipino-style sauce made with banana in place of tomato. Right now this page holds one bottle: Fancy Hanks Banana Ketchup Sauce, made in Melbourne. Flat $10 shipping Australia-wide.
