  There was a ketchup “anticipation” marketing campaign?

  Suddenly a particular Foxtrot comic strip makes a lot more sense.

      Thank you for the information, but I wasn’t so much concerned about the details as enjoying the revelation that a comic strip from my childhood suddenly made sense.

      Merry Christmas, in case that applies for you!
