    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?

        You’re very optimist if you expect ketchup to have any hint of tomatoes if regulations didn’t exist.

        It would be tap water, sugar and red food colouring.

    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.

      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!
