Subject:Ketchup is nobody's trademark From:"Mark L. Levinson" <mark -at- MEMCO -dot- CO -dot- IL> Date:Tue, 18 Nov 1997 12:35:46 +0200
The American Heritage dictionary says that the spelling "ketchup"
has been around since 1711. The Heinz bottle does claim the
word as a trademark. Somebody may have been confused by
the circle-U symbol that means the stuff is kosher.
It may be true, however, that "no other ketchup tastes like Heinz."
