Ketchup is a smooth, bright-red tomato-based condiment with a thick, pourable consistency. It tastes sweet and tangy with a light vinegar bite and subtle spice, working well as a dip, sandwich spread, or base for quick sauces and glazes; it is sold in squeeze bottles, glass bottles, and single-serve packets.\n\nModern tomato ketchup took shape in the 19th century in the United States and Britain, adapting the name from Southeast Asian fermented sauces. It is now produced globally from tomato concentrate, vinegar, sugar, and spices and features prominently in American, British, and Filipino cuisines.
