We’ve all felt it: that strange, irrational urge to bite the things we love. A kitten. A baby’s foot. Or your partner’s arm. Science calls it tender aggression: a psychological response that helps humans release emotion when affection becomes incontenible. Biting isn’t violence; it’s an instinctive way of expressing love.
What if biting a Heinz ketchup sachet wasn’t just about getting the ketchup out? Heinz redefines this everyday, almost unconscious gesture and turns it into an emotional act. Because when someone bites a sachet, it’s not impatience—it’s love. And if you bite what you love, it has to be Heinz.
«Bite what you love: Who hasn’t ever bitten a ketchup sachet to open it?»
“The Bite,” Heinz’s new campaign that explores why people bite ketchup packets.
