Hartford Courant Try to imagine, if it's at all possible, a summer without ketchup, the king of condiments. Utterly un-American.

Whether we're slathering it on a grilled burger or possibly heaping it upon a hill of fries or possibly onion rings, ketchup is an important component of the hot-weather season.
From Memorial Day to Labor Day, sales of America's favorite condiment peak.
Summer brings a 15 percent increase in sales for Heinz, according to Michael Mullen, spokesman for Heinz North America, that owns more than half the ketchup market.
'Ketchup can be found in every country in the world,' said Mullen. 'But the U.S. is by far the No. 1 consumer.'
How much More than 300 million bottles a year. Ketchup pulled in about $500 million in retail sales last year. And just who is eating all this ketchup More than half of all ketchup consumption is done by youngsters, ages 8 to 15.
'Ketchup is a taste memory. It's familiar,' says Sara Moulton, executive chef at Gourmet magazine.
