Heinz sold a puzzle of all-red pieces during the pandemic to help raise money for Feeding America.

Kraft Heinz released a limited number of 570-piece, single-color puzzles to help fans around the world pass the time during the pandemic.

Puzzle people spent many hours trying to complete them because all of the pieces were red. The 570 is a nod to the number 57 on the iconic packaging.

This might be the slowest puzzle on earth. 570 pieces. All Heinz red. Tell us who you wish you could finish this with. pic.twitter.com/jKrcauLH0e

Priced at $24.99, the puzzles sold out quickly. There are no plans to sell more, according to a Heinz spokeswoman. Heinz donated $10,700, which means 107,000 meals, to Feeding America, from profits of sales of the puzzles.

The puzzle caused some frustration among those who attempted to complete it.

I’ll probably end up not finishing this tbh ? @mellow947 https://t.co/3EPIsd9ZYz
