• Not gonna lie, “enforcing the line between ketchup and tomato sauce” isn’t the sort of thing I’d expect the government to be into, but I guess I’m not mad about it?

    I mean at that point is not a ketchup, more like a sauce , or a soup?

    Then again, anything can be soup at enough pressure and temperature

    that’s called tomato sauce.

    on a side note… that whole (and very popular) ‘anticipation’ marketing campaign was a fucking scam? ketchup is legally required to be that way.

      I’ve been trying to use google to understand this reference but it’s late for me, are you talking about the Heinz ad with the song “anticipation” from the 1970’s? Or is there a story i missed

      There was a ketchup “anticipation” marketing campaign?

      Suddenly a particular Foxtrot comic strip makes a lot more sense.

          Thank you for the information, but I wasn’t so much concerned about the details as enjoying the revelation that a comic strip from my childhood suddenly made sense.

          Merry Christmas, in case that applies for you!

      You can make it out of fruit other than tomatoes. A former coworker started a business and made blueberry, strawberry, and mango ketchup. The latter is a really great glaze for pork chops.
