The reason there is a pickle on the Heinz Ketchup Bottle is the pickle was used by Heinz to attract attention to his booth at the Chicago's World's Fair.
The pickle pin was so popular that attendees were lining up to get one and it was a simple marketing gimmick that became a part of the history of Heinz ketchup brand.
Heinz stopped using glass bottles for their Ketchup in the 1990s.
However Heinz started selling the Heinz ketchup in the squeezable plastic bottles in 1983 when they were first introduced.
But the glass bottles of Heinz ketchup was sold in stores until the 1990s.
Heinz competitors often used colored glass containers to hide impurities and disguise attempts to stretch the product.
Heinz sold his goods in clear glass containers to show the purity and superiority of his products.

The '57 varieties' of Heinz ketchup label represents the variety of products that Heinz has, but the number was actually selected at random by founder Henry Heinz himself.
He didn't have 57 varieties when the brand began.
Instead, it was a clever way to create authenticity and attract customers.
