In a rare occurrence for 2023, a man may be wholly disinterested in “going viral” — despite the best efforts of condiment conglomerate Heinz to thrust him into the spotlight.
According to CNN, sailor Elvis Francois ended up lost at sea in January, surviving primarily off ketchup.
In addition to the beloved tomato-based dipping sauce, Francois had access to garlic powder and bouillon cubes, the latter of which he would mix with water.
Francois had to live off that scrumptious concoction while being lost at sea for 24 days.
The 47-year old sailor, who hails from the tiny island nation of Dominica, was eventually saved when a plane spotted his defunct boat with “help” engraved into the hull, allowing Colombian authorities to rescue him.
