The word "ketchup" is not a trademark when used to describe and/or refer to the condiment made of pureed tomatoes, onions, sugar, spices, etc. A trademark is a word, phrase, symbol or design, or a combination of words, phrases, symbols or designs that identifies goods and services and distinguishes it from others' goods and services, and indicates the source of goods.

The word "ketchup" could be used a trademark if it is not used in its normal descriptive sense. For example, if I used the term "KETCHUP" to refer to a brand of shoes sold by my company. Such use of the term "ketchup" would be in a trademark sense, as it is not descriptive of the goods I am selling, and therefore would constitute a trademark.
