What states produce the most tomato ketchup?

It's tricky to get exact figures on tomato ketchup production by state, as this information is not readily available publicly.

However, we can make educated guesses based on the following:

* Major Tomato Growers: California, Florida, and Texas are the top tomato-producing states in the US.

* Location of Major Ketchup Producers: The largest ketchup producer in the US is Kraft Heinz, with manufacturing facilities spread across the country. While they don't disclose specific production data for each location, they likely have significant production in states with strong tomato supply chains and well-established food processing infrastructure.

* Logistics and Cost: Producing and transporting raw tomatoes is expensive. Thus, it's likely that ketchup producers aim for manufacturing facilities close to major tomato growing regions.

Therefore, it's reasonable to assume that California, Florida, and Texas are likely to have the highest production of tomato ketchup due to their significant tomato production and likely presence of large ketchup manufacturers.

However, other states with large food processing industries, such as Indiana, Ohio, and Pennsylvania, could also have significant ketchup production.

Remember, without official data from ketchup manufacturers, this is only an educated guess.
