The man whose viral Facebook post about French's ketchup being made with Highbury Canco tomato paste, says he's overwhelmed by the response.
Brian Fernandez says he's received numerous messages from Leamington residents.
"One of the messages I got was 'Hey, why don't you and your family stay with us at our farm, we'll put you up for free, we'll take you around town and show you around,'" says Fernandez. "It was just so heartwarming to see the response I've been getting from Leamington, Essex area, it's just fantastic."
The Orillia man also received a call from Elliott Penner, the president of French's, who wants to meet with him and his family.
Fernandez says he and his family would love to come to Leamington this summer to see the town.
