Part of the Food & Cooking Trivia cluster
If you're looking to test knowledge of Food Facts That Will Shock You without setting up a full quiz platform, "Ketchup Used to Be MEDICINE?! NO WAY!" is a single-link gameshow that drops into any classroom, workshop, or training flow. 10 questions, medium level, hosted live by an AI.
Each question runs on a 20-second timer, with answer reveals voiced by Jasper. Jasper plays the room like a late-night host — fast, playful, sharp on reactions. Total run time is about 5 minutes for 10 questions.
Coverage includes Medicinal Origins, Tomato's Strange Past, Condiment Evolution, Early Formulations, Decline Of A Remedy, and Key Ingredients. We don't display questions on the landing page so you can use "Ketchup Used to Be MEDICINE?! NO WAY!" as an unseen assessment — students or trainees hit Start cold.
No accounts, no installs — participants open the link on any device and play. The results screen shows each player's score and streak, which is enough for a quick debrief without exporting data. All in English.
Expect roughly 5 minutes for a full playthrough. "Ketchup Used to Be MEDICINE?! NO WAY!" has 10 questions on a 20-second-per-question clock, with voice-hosted reveals in between.
Players don't need to register. Share the link, they open it, they play. Trivana is built so hosts (classrooms, events, Discord servers) can spin up a game without forcing every participant through a signup flow.
"Ketchup Used to Be MEDICINE?! NO WAY!" is hosted by Jasper, one of Trivana's seven AI gameshow hosts. Jasper narrates every question, reacts to answers in real time, and gives the pack its on-mic personality. You can read Jasper's full profile and hear the voice at /hosts/jasper.
The pack is rated medium — a mid-level challenge — expect questions that reward genuine familiarity with the topic but don't require deep expertise. Combined with the fun tone, it's a good fit for mixed groups with some knowledge of the topic.
At its core, "Ketchup Used to Be MEDICINE?! NO WAY!" is about Food Facts That Will Shock You. Questions pull from themes including Medicinal Origins, Tomato's Strange Past, Condiment Evolution, Early Formulations, Decline Of A Remedy, and Key Ingredients. Exact questions are held back from the landing page so the first run still feels fresh.
Published language: English. Trivana supports ten languages end-to-end (English, Spanish, Hindi, French, German, Portuguese, Japanese, Arabic, Korean, Chinese), and the AI host speaks each of them natively rather than translating text on top of an English recording.
