## About <!--about-->
Heinz Tomato Ketchup 570 g is the 500 ml squeeze bottle of Heinz's tomato ketchup labelled for Britain and Ireland, carrying the short EAN-8 barcode 50457212.[^label-2018] Its back label names H.J. Heinz Foods UK Ltd. of Hayes, Middlesex, prints UK and Republic of Ireland carelines, and declares 148 g of tomatoes for every 100 g of ketchup, with spirit vinegar, sugar, salt, spice and herb extracts containing celery, and spice.[^label-2018] That company is a private limited company registered in England in 2012.[^ch-heinz-uk] The Heinz brand belongs to The Kraft Heinz Company, formed in 2015.[^enwiki-kh] A Maltese grocer listed the same barcode in stock in September 2026.[^mgarr]

Heinz first sold its ketchup as "catsup" in 1876 and replaced the gherkin on its label with a tomato in January 2009.[^enwiki-ketchup] The 2006-2013 Barcodepedia page for this barcode, created from upcdatabase.com data, already described a 570 g Heinz Tomato Ketchup.[^bp2009]
