Have you submitted any Heinz condiment packets for Heinz‘s The United States of Saucemerica? Not familiar with it? Don’t worry; neither was I.
I was at the corporate Burger King drive-thru getting a double cheeseburger and an original chicken sandwich when I first saw one of these packets. BK included a couple of ketchup packets with a Minnesota “Juicy Lucy” graphic.
This was one of the few times I double-checked my order to make sure both sandwiches were there. I rushed home, not to eat but to go online and investigate this United States of Saucemerica.
The short version is you collect condiment packets and submit a picture on their website. Each packet represents a state, along with a signature dish from there.
There’s also a way to win instant prizes daily on The United States of Saucemerica site. In addition to the instant prizes, there are also the sweepstake prizes. Yup…up for the winning are restaurant, hotel, or gas gift cards, Heinz merch, plus up to $100,000.
The FAQ should probably answer most of your follow-up questions.
Which Heinz Packets & Where Am I Looking For Them?
These are the packets you’re looking for: Heinz Tomato Ketchup, Heinz Yellow Mustard, Heinz Real Mayonnaise, Heinz BBQ sauce, Heinz Ranch Dressing, Heinz Simply Tomato Ketchup, or Heinz Premium Tartar Sauce.
Where to find them is a little trickier, but I’ve discovered packets at Burger King, Graziano’s, La Carreta, and Wawa in South Florida. The United States of Saucemerica website specifically mentions restaurants, theaters, and theme parks across the U.S. as a good starting point for your search.
What I Have Submitted So Far
You don’t end up with a Burger Museum without being a collector. So The United States of Saucemerica is right up my alley.
Please don’t make the mistake I made initially when I submitted a picture with three different packets. There can only be one packet per picture, and only one per state is allowed.

I wonder if they will try this again this year?
I still have not seen any winners and I collected every gas station I stopped in lol I was SO excited to find out winners
Same here; I wonder if it will happen in 2024 again?
I wonder where I can get the book! “The United States of Saucemerica” I’ve looked everywhere. Saw it on eBay for a crazy price.
I didn’t even know that existed!
That eBay seller made them. I bought one! The smaller one is cheaper. They have 2 sizes. It’s a gift so it’s worth it. Very cool.
