Interesting fact

Thick Enough To Qualify

Ketchup is legally a concentrate, and how concentrated is measured with a lab instrument: under the federal standard its flow must be not more than 14 centimeters in 30 seconds at 20 °C in a Bostwick consistometer. The same standard lets makers add vinegar, salt, spices and nutritive carbohydrate sweeteners to the tomato base.
