I've never refrigerated ketchup, but went looking for some expert opinions. The third post here is interesting:

To summarise, Heinz say you don't need to but refrigeration keeps the flavour better, while some Food Safety Specialist bint reckons that everyone's wrong and it can spoil if you don't. I reckon her kids play in a sterile bubble with glass-coated toys.
I read that entire thread and at the end had a moment of insight and realised I was hunched over a computer on a Thursday night reading about ketchup storage.Quote:

I have an excuse. It's Thursday after noon, and I'm 'working'.Quote:

Bands in pubs. I came in here for a chat, not to have a rock concert drown out everything around. Shut the f*** up.
Not receiving medals for POTM's pre 2010.
Its trivial, of course, I'm not bothered. Really.

Don't hate me because I'm right, tcm. :)
When someone is out jogging and they get stopped at traffic lights and they're waiting to cross the road and they jog on the spot waiting for the lights to change-take a break for the love of god.
Standing in the aisle near the front of a bus, blocking people from getting past to the free seats at the back, because you're getting off in a stop or two.
So thats why GnR were late :bigsmile:Quote:

That used to drive me crazy in Japan. At football games and baseball games, there were 'chant coordinators' stationed around the ground, and they either gestures to each other or were in radio contact to ensure that they got their section to chant at just the right moment. They didn't even watch the game, just faced the crowd the whole time.

When queueing in line at a petrol station the person behind you think it's perfectly acceptable to butt in front of you to pay the assistant just because they are paying for petrol only
People who utter the most hurtful and rude comments and absolve these comments as "just being honest" and being a "straight talker" who "calls it as I see it".
This loose definition of "being honest" is usually a mode of bullying, rudeness or just plain idiocy.
Whatever happened to minding your own f*cking business???????
I've found that these very people are the ones who usually can't take what they dish out - as I tend to retaliate with my own brand of honesty to these people. It saves time.
