Heinz PAC backs Bush and Kerry in partisan ketchup tale
The H J Heinz Co PAC donated 5000 to the Bush campaign and 5000 to the Democratic National Committee while Teresa Heinz Kerry inherited a fortune after her husband died in 1991. Despite political ties, shoppers show mixed loyalty to Heinz products. Some say they buy for the product, not politics, while others seek partisan alternatives. The Heinz family has sold most of their Heinz shares, and the company reports Heinz 57 as a top condiment with a large market share. A New York firm markets a partisan Ketchup, but many shoppers remain pragmatic about purchasing decisions.
