As an indonesian i just realize that the word ketchup do really come from our language kecap lol, when i was younger i always confused when using those 2 words since we use kecap as "soy sauce" and we call ketchup "tomato sauce" to differentiate kecap and ketchup because its pronouced in the same way

As an indonesian, I'm a little confused. It's like ya'll americans thought that every condomance is ketchup XD in Indonesia we call soy sauce as 'kecap' and we never used the term 'kecap' as something like 'kecap tomat' (tomato ketchup) XD my tummy hurts just by thinking about it coz it means that u mixed tomato sauce and soy sauce together. We normaly use the term 'saus' (in america: sauce) Like 'saus tomat' (tomato sauce), 'saus sambal' (chili sauce). And... yea, i think thats the only popular condomance in indonesia, just fish sauce, soy sauce, ketchup and hot sauce. Mustard isn't really a thing in Indonesia. But we use white&black pepper and msg a lot XD

I knew it was Asian but I was under the impression it always involved tomatoes or a similar plant. Because in Cantonese ketchup is called 茄(a type of plant which tomatoes or eggplants belong to) 酱 (sauce). If you say “茄酱” out loud it sounds exactly like “ketchup.”

the British colony found ketchup not from Vietnam but from "Bencouleen/Bengkulu" which is now a part of Indonesia, which they found was sweet soy sauce as "kecap" in Indonesian, which was a soy sauce adapted from fish fermented sauce from China/Vietnam, and Indonesia had indeed been colonized by British and they have a base in Bengcouleen or Bengkulu then after that they exchange territories, the Dutch get Bengkulu and the British get Singapore island.... Indonesia get it from Vietnam/China (fermented fish paste as ketsiap) ===> they make it again according to their taste and invented sweet soy sauce (kecap) ===> and then British comes had it and brought it to Europe and to all across the world

Interesting. I always buy lots of ketchup, but now I am cutting my food bill in half, so I am going to see if I can just use cheaper tomatoe sauce where I used to use mountains of expensive ketchup. By just buying a weeks worth of food, and stretching that (almost no waste) for two weeks, I have cut my food bill in half. If I have just enough of everything but no extra (just one bottle ketchup, mayonase, salad dressing) I conserve what supplies, food I have to get by. And I don't waste anything, like I do, if I have two or three times the food/supplies I need for two weeks. Learned this after always ending up cooking an amount that I thought was one meal, but which always had left overs for the next meal. Seems my eyes are always bigger than my stomach. So I changed my shopping habits and am saving lots of money.
