Catsup is Ketchup... a great american interprtation of the Indian or Malaysian Kitjup Manis which means: fish sauce.

Tomato ketchup was introduced in the US as early as 1820 or so. It was first made popular by Jonas Yerks to utilize leftover tomatoes. F and J Heinz popularized this condiment in 1876.

My sources assure me that you can get tomato ketchup in the UK.

Hope this helps.
