What the Hell is Fancy Ketchup!?!


Question: What the Hell is Fancy Ketchup!?
And why doesn't it have a bow-tie!?

Answers:

There’s no legal definition. No producer makes both fancy and non-fancy ketchup. The USDA code governing ketchup doesn’t mention it, despite containing such trivia as "The consistency of the flavored catsup shall be not more than 10 centimeters in 30 seconds at 20oC (68oF) ± 1oC (1.8oF) when poured on the flat grading tray in the Bostwick consistometer."The USDA does regulate other uses of the word "fancy", like watermelons or maple syrup. "Fancy" is a word that marketers like to use, and so sometimes they petition the FDA to regulate it to exclude lame products from using the word. Clearly, nobody has felt that way about ketchup, so any marketers are free to stick the word on any reddish crud that otherwise qualifies as ketchup
