Here's a quote from the wonderful "Handbook of Practical Cookery for
Ladies and Professional Cooks. Containing the Whole Science and Art of
Preparing Human Food.
By Pierre Blot. Professor of Gastronomy, and Founder of the New York
Cooking Academy.
New York: D. Appleton and Co., 1868" from the great Feeding America
website someone posted recently:

"Beware of what is sold under the name of catsups and pickles; many
cases of dyspepsia, debility, and consumption come from using such
stuff."
