I would answer "maybe" to almost every food for a poll worded this way because there are very, very few foods that cause an immediate and obvious downturn. That's one of the most disheartening things for me...I never can feel 100% comfortable with any food. All that being said, I rarely use ketchup since it's loaded with sugar, but when I do, I have not noticed any changes.

I'm saying yes but I rarely have more than about a tablespoon total so hard to say if large amounts would be bad.

Yes. Been told it's a great way to get some licopene and no fiber or seeds to worry about.

My 15 year old son with Crohn's eats ketchup on just about everything. Joke at the house is he has ketchup with his ketchup.

That seems like excessive sodium lol.

Ketchup is fine for me. White rice, grated cheese and ketchup is one of my safe meals... if that's a meal.
