Heinz Tomato Ketchup is a brand of ketchup produced by the H. J. Heinz Company. It is the largest and fastest-selling product the company has ever distributed.

First introduced in 1876, it remains one of the best selling brands of ketchup. In 1907, Heinz started producing 12 million bottles of ketchup per year, exporting ketchup all over the world, including India, Australia, South America, Japan, New Zealand, South Africa and the United Kingdom. Heinz ketchup is often served at many restaurants in the United States and Canada, as well as many other countries. As a condiment for many foods, such as french fries, chips, hamburgers and hot dogs, Heinz ketchup uses the slogan, "America's Favorite Ketchup." Currently, there are more than 650 million bottles of Heinz Tomato Ketchup being sold every year throughout the world.

In the late 1970s into the early 1980s, the song "Anticipation" by Carly Simon was used in its advertising, in reference to the ketchup coming out of a glass bottle slowly.

Besides glass bottles, Heinz ketchup comes in squeezable containers. In 2000, Heinz introduced colored ketchup products called EZ Squirt, which were targeted towards young children. The product was available in a squeezable container and was eventually discontinued in 2006. Green and Purple colored ketchup was also available for a limited time. The ketchup also comes in single serve packets and plastic bottles. In 2010, Heinz unveiled a new single serve cup for dipping and squeezing appropriately called the Dip & Squeeze, that will eventually replace the original packets.

In January 2009, the label design was altered, with the illustration of a gherkin pickle that had adorned the label since the 1890s removed and replaced with an illustration of a vine-ripened tomato accompanied by the slogan "Grown not made".

Most of the world's Heinz tomato ketchup is made in the main US plant at Fremont, Ohio...

Heinz 57 is a shortened, popular form of the "57 Varieties" slogan of 70 which is now out. Pittsburgh's H. J. Heinz Company. In its early days, the company wanted to advertise the great number of choices of canned and bottled foods it offered for sale. Although the company had more than 60 products in 1892, the number 57 was chosen because the numbers "5" and "7" held special significance to Henry J. Heinz. The number "5" was Henry Heinz's lucky number; the number "7" was his wife's lucky number. Prepared horseradish was their first product. The slogan is printed on Heinz pickle pins that are distributed by the millions...
