Which of the two is healthier? mustard or ketchup?
-
I believe mustard is healthier. Where would hot dogs be without it?
Besides, ketchup has sugar in it and my younger son detests it.
:fish:
-
mustard is healthier.
-
I am pretty sure mustard is much healthier and without reading everyone eles comments which i am sure they agreed to but ketchup i know has a lot of sugars in it maybe>Z?
-
Mustard is healthier, besides ketchup is just gross.
-
I am honestly not sure but I would guess mustard although Ketchup is what I prefer. Never really liked mustard too much.
-
I'm not sure if any are healthy for you. But I know the ketchup is made of tomatoes and tomatoes have likapene in them and likapene fights cancer. So I would think that it would be ketchup, I mean I like the taste better then mustard.
-
mustard...the grainy kind
-
I don't use either.
-
Both are great but I will go with ketchup
-
I perfer mustard on my food than ketchup, especially on hotdogs.
-
like ketchup better anyway
-
Which of the two is healthier? mustard or ketchup?
I'll vote for ketchup, making it 4 for ketchup & 7 for mustard!
But I'm looking `em both up!
Well, Ketchup came up first in a search for "mustard, ketchup, health (http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special%3ASearch&profile=default&search=mustard%2C+ketchup%2C+health&fulltext=Search) (one point, ketchup), going on to say
Ketchup has moderate health benefits. Ketchup is a source of lycopene, an antioxidant which may help prevent some forms of cancer. This is particularly true of the organic brands of ketchup, which have three times as much lycopene. Ketchup, much like marinara sauce and other cooked tomato foods, yields higher levels of lycopene per serving because cooking increases lycopene bioavailability.
In May 2010, Hunt's stopped using high fructose corn syrup in its ketchup products because of consumer complaints.
A search for "mustard, health" wasn't so bright, as the plant is famously used for a poison-gas.

I'm not sure which one is healthier - mustard or ketchup. However, I prefer the taste of ketchup and I use ketchup on lots of my foods.
-
I don't know which one is supposed to be healthier.I'll eat either one,but I like ketchup better and eat more of it.
-
I would think Mustard is healthier. But I like both.
-
Between mustard and ketchup, I prefer both sometimes. The mustard is strong at times. I found an alternative to mustard: honey mustard. It is milder than the regular mustard. I have to buy ketchup because my hubby and grandson prefers them. Every now and then, I will use ketchup, especially when I am cooking. I use ketchup when I make my homemade sloppy joes. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :heart: :heart: :rainbow:

:confused1: Why are people thinking that mustard is healthier? ???
-
I think mustard is healthy, but I know as a fact that ketchup is healthy too. Mustard might be healthier but ketchup is not bad. They both can be healthy if use with moderation. Tomatoes is one of the healthier products out there and ketchup is made out of that.
Now for preference I :heart: :thumbsup: mustard, is my favorite ingredient when I make sandwich, I can live without mayo and ketchup but not without mustard. But ketchup is the best for fries, hot dogs and a few other foods.
So for me they both are healthy.
-
I use both on my food.
-
i dont know which one is healthier but id choose ketchup either way
-
Hmmm...neither. I think both are really bad for our health but if we have to compare the two...just stay away from anything with high fructose corn syrup.
-
eat everything a little that your body may need all kind of nutrition
-
It it that mustard has less calories?
-
Ketchup is healthier it contains no fat, low calorie and high in Lycopene that prevents cancer.
-
I prefer mustard when I eat a hot dog or sausage, for my burgers or cheese steak I would rather have ketchup.
-
I couldn't tell you which is healthier but I can say that the only mustards I will eat is honey mustard and the brown or Dijon and then that is on a corn beef sandwich. I prefer ketchup.
-
Mustards healthier because it's just mustard no additives whatsoever. Ketchup's also healthy just not as much because of the additive's but its not really fating either
-
I would have to say Mustard(it doesnt have sugar in it like ketchup) :)
-
If a study were done on the two items, I think that mustard would probably prove out as a healthier condiment. However I don't think that either of these items would be determined as 'unhealthy' in normal diets. If either were to be heavily consumed just as any particular food they both would likely cause health issues.
-
In my household, I have to buy both. I buy classic yellow mustard for my family members, but I love honey mustard. I have experimented with different brands of mustards for years and found that honey mustard is milder than classic yellow mustard or spicy brown mustard. I buy ketchup also for my family members. I have eaten both, and I believe that mustard is healthier. I lived in Chicago for nearly 28 years and got accustomed to eating mild sauce (a combination of ketchup and hot sauce). Since then, I don't really care that much for ketchup. :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :thumbsup: :heart: :rainbow:
-
I also have to buy both for my house. But I myself
like mustard more. The rest of my household however
like ketchup.
-
Mustard!
-
I have always been told that mustard is very healthy!! and good thing for me that I like mustard way more then ketchup anyway
-
Good question. Mustard is an herb. Ketchup is from tomatoes. I'd have to guess to say mustard.
-
I don't know which is healthier, but I love ketchup and would choose that over mustard anytime.
-
I don't know which one is healthier but I like ketchup more than mustard. :)
-
mustard is healthier than ketchup.but i like the taste of ketchup better.i do like mustard on hot dogs though
-
I don't know. I think it depends on the kind and the kind of ingredients used. (Like organic versus gmo.) Also, I think it probably depends on how much you use and how often. I don't use either one very often and when I do I don't use very much.
-
Depends if you get the healthy ketchup or not. Regular ketchup has alot of sugar and sodium.
-
I have both about the same!
-
I would think ketchup is because of the lycopene, and especially if you buy organic.
-
Not sure...ha...but I prefer ketchup
-
mustard is healthier, ketchup has sugar in it and mustard is more natural
-
I think they are just about the same. But since there is more sugar in ketchup, mustard seems to be the healthier choice. Although you just can't have one without the other if you are having a hot dog.
-
I would think mustard but I enjoy both of them on food.
-
I think mustard is healthier, because ketchup contains more sugar then lycopene.
-
I like mustard. :heart:
-
Which of the two is healthier? mustard or ketchup?

-
Ketchup has much more uses in my opinion.
-
I think mustard has more health benefits? I could be wrong though
-
i'm not sure but i have read that ketchup can help you lose weight. would have to eat a lot of it though i think :glasses-nerdy:
-
