What’s the Difference Between Ketchup and Catsup?As it turns out, they’re the same thing! Ketchup and catsup are both Westernized terms for a condiment that has origins in China: fish sauce. Ketchup as we know it today is a modernized version of fish sauce, which was made in port towns on the South China Sea with salted and fermented anchovies. The condiment made its way west via European merchants, taking with it Westernized pronunciations. Early recipes for ketchup (or catsup, if you like) incorporated a wide variety of ingredients like mushrooms, walnuts, and shellfish (hence the distinction tomato ketchup). Ketchup evolved to include ingredients like vinegar and alcohol (like wine and brandy) that served as both flavor enhancers and preservatives. Today, ketchup has become both sweet and savory with the addition of sugar to our modern versions. Condition:Labels on the bottle are in good condition, Some fading and minor edge damage. Tin top shows some surface oxidation but twists on and off correctly. Bottle clean with no nicks or breaks.
