Surely this stuff doesn't expire. Would be a Best Before?

Yes, it's a best before.

Thanks, have corrected

why doesn't expire?

Salt content and shelf stable preservatives is my guess. I think stuff like tomato sauce is good for a year past best before date. Not sure if it'll make you sick, but the taste and structure will likely degrade.

Oh never knew there was a difference between expiry and best before

As a guide, search result:
Use-by dates are strictly about safety**, indicating the last date a perishable item (like meat, dairy, or ready meals) is guaranteed safe to eat; consuming food past this date poses health risks, and it is illegal to sell it.
Best-before (Expiry) dates relate to quality**, signalling when a product (like pasta, canned goods, or frozen items) may start to lose its peak taste, texture, or nutritional value, but remains safe to consume if stored correctly and shows no signs of spoilage.- 1

Lol the shit you would be putting it on I guarantee would be salty and unhealthy anyway.
Ketchup is much better than water tomato sauce (that is salty too).

at 25% sugar I think the sugar content is far worse. though must admit I have gone off heinz over the last few years. I use berenberg tomato sauce now which is less than half the salt of heinz but only slightly less sugar sadly.

It’s Made in New Zealand. Should be ok.

The Netherlands made one is best, NZ one has a weird acidic flavour. Also, the blue label no added sugar one is even better.

Is the "No sugar added" available in Oz? Or the made in the Netherlands one?
I've only seen the 50% less added sugar & salt. This is my go to.

In the Reject shop photo it’s got New Zealand. The old sauce bait and switch trick. We need an inquiry into this.

Oh this is amazing! I thought the Netherlands one was gone. The NZ and Poland lids are terrible and is nothing compared the original Netherlands one. I’ll be stocking up! I stopped buying Heinz BBQ when they switched to NZ

Maybe the Netherlands one is best because they use mayo on chips and therefore there's plenty of good stuff available to go into the ketchup.

There are only two things I cannot stand. People who are intolerant of other peoples culture. And the dutch.

Refit Mayo on Frites is seriously next level , but if you happen to get Belgian mayonnaise that’s the other level of next level
