Here is my first time addressing a question about the process. After roughly an hour full of confusing thoughts, finally I manage to finish it. There will be many mistakes regarding the grammatical range or accuracy, therefore your advice will be helpful. Feel free to discuss this with me.

These pictures illustrate the steps involved in making ketchup and selling bottles of ketchup to supermarkets. There are 15 steps in the pictures from picking tomatoes to enjoying ketchup at home.

Initially, tomatoes are picked and put in baskets. Next, the tomatoes are sorted based on good or bad categories. Once the good tomatoes have been sent to the factory, their stark, seeds, and skin then are removed. Following this, the tomatoes are put into the containers and crushed to be made into a liquid. Sugar, vinegar, and salt are added to those liquids, which gives them extra flavour. After that, the containers are boiled for roughly two hours before being poured into bottles.

To sell the ketchup to supermarkets, first of all, the ketchup bottles are labeled. After being inspected through a quality control process, the selected ketchup is then put into the boxes. The boxes of ketchup are delivered to supermarkets where they are put on the shelves to be sold. Finally, you can buy a bottle of ketchup and enjoy it with a hamburger and French fries.
