Rapper's Delight But what many English-speaking “Ketchup Song” fans may have never realized is that the chorus is itself a nonsensical mangling of the refrain from another classic record: “Rapper's Delight,” the Sugarhill Gang's pioneering 1979 hip-hop classic.

Heinz Company eventually hit upon the perfect balance of sweet, salty, sour, and umami, creating a precisely calibrated product that was difficult for others to replicate - a “platonic ideal of ketchup,” as writer Malcolm Gladwell has noted.

It's about a man trying to sing Rapper's Delight Las Ketchup's song is about a man named Diego who is trying to request his favourite song, Rapper's Delight by the Sugarhill Gang, but doesn't know the tune's name so gives an incorrect imitation of the 1980 classic's chorus to the DJ.

PITTSBURGH, Pa. - After conditioning consumers for 124 years to expect ketchup to be red, the H.J. Heinz company pivoted suddenly on July 10, 2000, and gave the condiment a colorful makeover. The Heinz EZ Squirt debuted with Blastin' Green ketchup as a promotion in support of the first “Shrek” movie.

Back when Henry John Heinz – better known as H.J. – debuted the condiment for sale in 1876, his Pittsburgh-founded company called it "catsup." They're the same thing, though the condiment didn't originally feature tomatoes – thus the distinction "tomato ketchup" actually isn't redundant.

  • Ketchup used to be catsup.
  • An employee coined the term 'quality control.
  • '57 Varieties' was never actually accurate - here's where it came from.
  • They've got a history with pickles.

The extraordinary story of Heinz ketchup began with 25-year old H.J. Heinz experimenting in the kitchen of his German mother. He decided to market his mother's grated horseradish and bottled this product in clear glass jars to show its purity.

The big idea In 1876, Heinz created his signature product, ketchup. Heinz needed to appeal to as many people as possible, so he added salt, onion, and garlic to his tomato base, thickening it with pulp.
