According to the article, it's because it wasn't refrigerated.

Didn't Spontaneous Ketchup Detonation open for Hiroshima about a decade ago?

I think Ketchup Detonation WBAGNF a Chris Christie tribute band.

Preliminary investigations from Heinz officials show that the Dover, N.J., operation had a simple ploy in mind: Purchase bulk quantities of traditional Heinz ketchup, transfer the sauce via large bladders into individual containers labeled "Simply Heinz," one of the company's premium recipes, then shunt the result off to unwitting consumers at a cushy markup.
One must say that...one cannot improve upon that sentence.

Remember: always use a condiment.

But which state has the most registered bottles of exploding ketchup?

I once identified a previously unrealized hazard on an inspection. I asked the lady running the place, "Any problems?"
"Only that the (product) keeps exploding."
That's bad, if you were wondering.

By the way, the answer to the original question is, "Because it can."

Because it is the tomato garden state?

Maybe they're trying to play catch up with NY.
