18. Banana Ketchup
In the Philippines, bananas are used in place of tomatoes to make the popular banana ketchup. Banana ketchup or Banana sauce is a popular fruit ketchup made from mashed banana, sugar, vinegar, and different type of spices.
It has a natural color like brownish-yellow, but it is often dyed with different colorings like red to resemble tomato ketchup. Banana ketchup was made when there was a shortage of tomato ketchup during World War II, due to lack of tomatoes and a comparatively high production of bananas.
