Hardhitting PBS story at 7pmCT: Ketchup: King of

[babylonsister]

Condiments :eyes: You'll even get a tour of the Heinz ketchup-making facility. Just thought I'd share. :)

1. Thank you for the heads up!!!

Do you think they'll address the volatile issue of plastic vs. glass bottles?

[Psephos]

2. I like glass n/t

9. Is it true that the key to getting flow is to tap the logo on the neck?

(of the bottle, that is)

[noamnety]

10. I vehemently oppose

inserting a knife to get the ketchup flowing.

I support stricter knife control laws.

[hootinholler]

12. Absolutely!

I tap the bottle to my hand not the other way around.

My sister had a dog that was a mutt. Someone asked her the breed and she replied it's a Heinz-57. The person asking didn't get it and started asking about where there were breeders :)

13. You just reminded me of something spooky

Actor/Dancer Gregory Hines died a few years ago at the age of 57.

[OffWithTheirHeads]

14. anywhere on the side of the bottle is o.k.

hitting it on the bottom creates a vacuume which is why the catsup won't come out that way.

[Montauk6]

15. Yeah, I knew about that.

That's when you end up with that huge glop effect... turns your burger into cacciatore right there on the spot.

[FreedomAngel82]

3. Interesting

I wonder if they'll show Mrs. Heinz Kerry on there. :shrug:

[TahitiNut]

4. I guess that's part of the "Our Heroic Corporations" series ...

... that'll replace the low-down, lihbrul truth-telling like Bill Moyers' NOW.

Remember, Ketchup is a Vegetable!!!

[CatholicEdHead]

5. And yet many Conservatives will call this a "liberal media" broadcast

because many still think Heinz is the devil from last fall's antics. Many of them have gone Hunts or some other brand for good.

[XanaDUer]

6. Hunts ketchup sucks.

Let 'em eat it and suffer.

[FreedomAngel82]

7. Hilarious

And they didn't know that John Heinz was a republican? :eyes: And Teresa used to be one. She was asked why she changed and she said because of how Max Cleland was treated.

8. They're spending my tax dollars on condiments?

Is this a follow-up to Hot Dogs? And Sandwiches?

[babylonsister]

11. Not only condiments, now they're profiling the making

and gathering and collecting of Coke bottles. Exciting stuff!

[aquart]

17. Coke bottles?

Isn't it possible to put them to obscene use? I mean, don't people DOUCHE with them?

[kestrel91316]

16. My homemade ketchup (from homegrown tomatoes) is ..............

WAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY better than anything you can buy in the store. Mine actually has enough spices that you can taste them, lol.
