Lol yes, I was just telling my bf about that one yesterday because he showed me something with beans and toast that made fun of spice level.

No no, extra mild. Regular Pace is ketchup, extra mild must be mayo w/red food coloring

I believe that's known as "Fry Sauce" in Utah.

No, it's basically chunky tomato paste. Not quite as sweet and thinner. Thin, slightly savory, tomato paste with some flavorless lightly cooked onions and peppers mixed in.

Source, we get it here in MN. Not on every store shelf, but it does appear occasionally. Kinda depends on your neighborhood.

I have too many actual Hispanics in my neighborhood for it to show up at my Cub. Been thinking about a trip out to Eagan or Chanhassen to buy a bottle for display.

Go outstate and it's more common, in my experience.

Could be worse, I’ve heard that same jar is what’s sold as “extra hot” in Japan

Beans on toast is fucking awesome though. I'll hand it to the Brits on that one.
