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."
