in 1896, Henry John Heinz noticed an advertisement for "21 styles of shoes." He decided that his own products were not styles, but varieties. Although there were many more than 57 foods in production at the time, because the numbers "5" and "7" held a special significance for him and his wife, he adopted the slogan "57 Varieties."

In the early days, Heinz wanted to advertise the great number of products they had. The number 57 was chosen arbitrarily, when in reality they had over 60 products and today have over 1000.

They didn't taste as good. Recipe number 57 was the best. Same as WD-40. It was the 40th try and it worked.
