"I always wondered why 'ketchup' has so many different spellings; and how it got its name. Heinz was the perfect place to start my research. The more I dug, the more I realized that Heinz was a natural for our Popular Products series. Over its 130 year history, they've had only 6 CEOs over the same period we've had 25 U.S. Presidents; Henry Heinz was instrumental in getting the Pure Food and Drug Act passed over many objections from his fellow food processors, but did it with a shot of whiskey for Teddy Roosevelt; and they created a very low-tech way to combine honeybees and pickles. With John Dryer's input, Knowledge in a Nutshell on Popular Products Heinz Edition appeals to all ages. It's about the fun facts behind food we all like to eat."
