Content: Moreover, the terms ‘catchup’ and ‘cetchup’ also refer to the same thing. To make things worse the name game doesn’t end here. There are scores of other names from Cackchop, Cornchop, Kitsip, Catsoup, Katshoup to Kotpock, Kutpuck, Kutchpuck, etc. being used to refer to ketchup. Where and how did all these names come about? Well, in 1876, H. J. Heinz Company of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania (though not the inventor of ketchup or the first one to bottle it, however, was the first to commercialize it) became very popular for its commercially bottled ketchup. They gained market share steadily and enjoyed large chunks of profits. Observing their overwhelming success, a whole slew of manufacturers began commercially producing ketchup and branding them with all sorts of names. Soon the same ketchup was being referred to by all sorts of different names. Now we know why there’s so much confusion!
