If there is one condiment that I think should actually be a food group, its ketchup. I LOVE ketchup. And I used to use a lot of it! Here is food for thought -- Some interesting facts on ketchup:
*Ketchup is one of the most popular condiments in the US – its a half a billion dollar industry
* Ketchup is originally from east Asia and was used as a spicy fish sauce called Ke-Tsiap
*Ketchup is 25% sugar! No wonder I like it! J
*Ketchup is high in salt. A single teaspoon of ketchup contains almost ten percent of a day’s worth of recommended sodium. – yikes
* Squeeze bottles were introduced in the 1980’s to solve the problem of ketchup not coming out of glass containers.
*Not everyone is a fan of ketchup. In the Netherlands, mayonnaise is the condiment of choice with french fries.
I have no idea what you might do with these facts on ketchup but maybe it will help you answer a trivia question the next time your family has game night. Ha!
· Thought for the day
There is one thing you should be abundantly thankful for – Only you and God have all the facts about yourself.
