God created tomatoes as fruit. The US deemed them as a vegetable for the purpose of commerce/shipping.

Therefore, shouldn’t Ketchup be called a Smoothie and not a Condiment?

Sort of. It was a question of taxation. There was no import tax on fruit, but there was on vegetables. The Supreme Court ruled that while botanically a fruit, tomatos functioned as a vegetable and were therefore subject to the import tax.
