Not only are
advertisers attaching a nutritional aspect to ketchup, they are redefining
ketchup– perhaps in an attempt to promote a healthier way of life. Even an
advertisement about a universally known brand has the potential to be
interpreted in various ways. In the Heinz example, a consumer may see the
sliced ketchup bottle as an abstract sculpture, and therefore associate Heinz
ketchup with innovation and art. Or maybe people will think that Heinz is a
ketchup company and a tomato farm. The interpretation is contingent upon the
values and norms of a particular segment of society but by tapping into the
vein of popular culture, marketers have the opportunity to appeal to consumers
using a kind of short-hand that benefits their bottom line.
