Ketchup Fiascoes Quotes
Del Monte's jingle "Even Cats like our Catsup!" drew a lawsuit from one customer who overfed it to her cat causing it to have stomach problems and hair with an unnatural red-orange glow. It ended after weeks of litigation with a million-dollar settlement and two years of free hair dying for the cat.Heinz, trying to play up their spelling and new plastic bottle, was ridiculed by English teachers everywhere for their promotion "You don't need to 'ketch' it when it drops!" forcing Heinz to make huge donations to the "Erase Illiteracy in America" program. — Culinary Slueth
