TELL ME SOMETHING GOOD: Man stranded at sea for almost a month survives on one food item

It’s scary enough to be stranded at sea on a boat. Now imagine being stranded with no food except one bottle of ketchup.

That’s exactly what happened back in December to this sailor named Elvis Francois who was stranded for 24 days until the Columbian Navy rescued him. Elvis says he only had some seasoning packets, a little garlic powder, and a bottle of Heinz ketchup. That’s what he was able to survive on.

Now that Heinz has heard about his story they want to help and support Elvis and his family. Including buying him a brand new boat!

I’m guessing he’s sick of ketchup… but a lifetime supply would nice too.
