after it's opened, it belongs in the fridge

QuoteDue to their high acid content, both mustard and ketchup will keep fine for about a month in the pantry. But after that, their flavor, appearance and texture will begin to break down and deteriorate much more quickly at normal room temperatures than in the cooler 40° F storage conditions of the refrigerator.

An opened bottle of ketchup should stay at peak quality for about 6 months in the fridge; mustard for at least a year. And both will remain safe to consume for much longer than that, as long as they've been continuously refrigerated.

You wouldn't use a ketchup packet at McDonald's that was open, would you? Opened > Fridge.

Before it's opened it goes in the basement.
After it's opened it goes in the fridge.
After that it goes to get rinsed.
Then it goes in recycling.
Then it gets recycled.
And the chain continues.

this question is irrelevant
the entire ketchup is to be consumed immediately upon opening

at home we keep our's in the fridge, but at work we keep them at our server stations.

one time the ketchup bottle exploded on a cop after he shook it too hard and got all over his hat. it was a very bad time.

It's practically spicy jam. Its delicious with curries or with cheese in a sandwich.

Also ketchup goes wherever I can be bothered to put it after using it
