Published Date: 5/13/2026

Notice

Summary

The USDA is updating seven U.S. grade standards for canned tomato products starting June 12, 2026. They’re simplifying color grading, switching from two terms to one, and changing “catsup” to the more popular “ketchup.” These changes help tomato producers and sellers keep things clear and consistent without adding extra costs.
