Presidential Ketchup

Americans and their leaders like ketchup. President Richard Nixon had ketchup with his cottage cheese, and in 1981, President Ronald Reagan declared the red stuff an official vegetable. But our neighbors to the north like it even better than we do. The average Canadian uses 1.48 quarts of the tomato-based sauce each year. U.S. citizens eat just a little bit less: 1.16 quarts per person, annually.
