Watch out for… EXPLODING KETCHUP!

Early ketchup was made from fermented skins and cores - tomato “leftovers” that could explode and burst their containers, so benzoate of soda was added a preservative.

The Pure Food and Drug Act of 1906 regulated ketchup—and its rotting, explosive tomato ingredients. In 1909, the company making “Squire Tomato Catsup” was prosecuted and fined $50 for making ketchup from “Decomposed Material!“

Hot Dogs and Diplomacy — Relish The Legacy!

By Emily Rollman | Intern, Office of Public and Media Communications

WASHINGTON, July 18, 2018 — Hot dogs have been a staple of American cuisine since they were first introduced by German immigrants in the 19th century. Now the dish is synonymous with cookouts and baseball games — but the humble hot dog has also made appearances on military bases, aboard the Space Shuttle, and at the White House. Indeed, Nelson Rockefeller once said “No candidate for any office can hope to get elected in this country without being photographed eating a hot dog.”

Over the years many presidents have enjoyed hot dogs on the campaign trail and at July 4th celebrations, but the dish has also been instrumental in American foreign affairs events.

The most famous Presidential hot dog moment was when FDR and Eleanor Roosevelt invited King George VI and Queen Elizabeth to their Hyde Park home on June 11, 1939, for an informal picnic. The menu included American fare, like strawberry shortcake and hot dogs. The queen supposedly asked Roosevelt how one ate a hot dog. “Very simple. Push it into your mouth and keep pushing it until it is all gone,” he allegedly responded. The casual hot dog dinner was well received by the royals, and the British-U.S. alliance was strengthened as World War II loomed.

George H.W. Bush continued the tradition of hot dogs at diplomatic meals with France’s then-President Nicolas Sarkozy at the Bush family home in Kennebunkport, Maine. But perhaps hot dogs most notably changed the course of U.S. foreign involvement in 1999 when President Clinton traveled to Norway to meet and negotiate Middle East Peace with Prime Minister Ehud Barak of Israel and Chairman Yasser Arafat of the Palestinian Authority. After their meeting the leaders gathered and enjoyed kosher hot dogs together at the U.S. Ambassador’s Residence in Oslo.
