One caveat to willglynn's answer for anyone seeing this in the future -- the original query and the new query have slightly different behavior. Namely,

SELECT data->'Supplier' AS sup
FROM products;

will include a NULL value assuming at least one row doesn't have an assignment for Supplier.

SELECT DISTINCT
svals(slice(data, ARRAY['Supplier']))
FROM "products"

will not return the NULL value.
