    Can you use honey or something else to sweeten it? If it doesn't have some kind of sweetner it would be tomato sauce :D:D:D

    No, there are varieties on the market with artificial sweeteners but amma's right, without them it'd just be tomato sauce.

    Why do you ask?

    Found this one on my usual low carb board. It has Splenda but in a pinch...

    6 oz. can tomato paste, 6 oz. water, 3 oz. red wine vinegar, 2 tbsp splenda, 1/2 tsp. onion powder, 1 tsp. salt

    I'm at that point !!! trying to make cocktail sauce ( i'm on atkins ) could use some sweetner but, then I'd have to count 1 pkt as 1 net carb. On Induction phase (1st out of 4 phases' ) you only get 20 net carbs ( carbs minus fiber and sugar alcohol to find net carb of stuff ) so........ I did find one but can't find it again , ugh !!!! maybe walmart. they all use to have diebetic sections but no more that I can find. thank you

    Atkins and if I use an artificial sweetner I have to count each pkt as 1 net carb , only get 20 a day on Induction phase 1 so....oh 12 to 15 net carbs are supposed to be specific vegetables so......

    The diatetic stuff all has sugar sub. in it. What do you want to use the catsup for? When I began reducing sugars (diabetic) I learned some interesting alternatives that I now prefer to catsup.
