In the early days of the Heinz company, they wanted to highlight the variety of their products. They chose the number 57 arbitrarily to show how many they had. The ad read "57 varieties" and the slogan "Heinz 57" stuck.
The "57 varieties" referred to the number of products that they had, although at the time they did have more products than 57, but H.J. Heinz thought that it was a magical (faerie princess) number...
An urban myth has it that if you tap the 57 on the side of the glass bottle in a restaurant, the ketchup will start to com out. This information is (not) yet to be evaluated by the FDA [Food and Drug Administration to nerd you out!] so there is no way to prove it.
While riding a train in New York City in 1896, Henry Heinz saw a sign advertising 21 styles of shoes, which he thought was clever. Although Heinz was manufacturing more than 60 products at the time, Henry thought 57 was a lucky number. So, he began using the slogan "57 Varieties" in all his advertising. Today the company has more than 5,700 products around the globe, but still uses the magic number of "57."

Money. Its always the reason. I loved H57 when I was a kid, when they added the sugar and toned down the vinegar and curry taste I gave it up. Not sure how they benefited financially by changing the new recipe, but you can bet it was for money. It was Either to gain more customers with taste for sugar (addicts) who lived in the US or to allow the company to create other competing brands, split the market and multiply their customers. Maybe some ingredient was expensive. Whatever, money is the answer. Money is always the answer.

Heinz 57
Heinz 57 ketchup originated from H.J. Heinz Company, founded by Henry John Heinz in 1869 in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. The "57" in its name refers to the company's slogan, "57 varieties," which Heinz used to market his products, despite offering many more than that. The ketchup itself became popular due to its unique blend of tomatoes, vinegar, sugar, and spices, and it was first introduced in the late 19th century. Today, it is one of the most recognized ketchup brands globally.
