Do you use "hot" or "spicy" when talking about ketchup?

Neither, ketchup isn't considered spicy.
Hot is often substituted for spicy, but inevitably it leads to confusion and the question. "Do you mean it's too hot or too spicy?"

@magasum That is non standard. If you asked for ketchup in a restaurant, they wouldn't bring you that. Normal ketchup is a bit sweet and has a mild vinegar taste as well. Cheap brands of ketchup usually have too much vinegar flavor as the primary complaint.
If you wanted something spicy in a restaurant you would ask "What kinds of hot sauce do you have?"

@magasum That's interesting. Heinz is the most recognizable ketchup brand in North America. Hot sauces have become increasingly popular, so I suppose they're trying to get a piece of the hot sauce market.
I don't use ketchup much, but when I buy some, I just look for Heinz. It doesn't matter if another brand is cheaper, I know what I'm getting with Heinz.

@magasum Agreed, I was surprised when I saw your picture. I doubt hot and spicy ketchup will do well in North America. People are surprisingly stubborn about their sauces. Something that is a combination of two well known flavors is just confusing.
