Like I said, it is mostly used on hot dogs, which makes me  think it is an
"instant chili dog" kinda of thing.

Also, I think Heinz makes their products differently for each region they sell
in, kinda like how coke has different formulas for different regions due to 
transport, production, and local preference issues.
