If you’re the sort who enjoys visiting a fast food joint and eating ketchup, prepare to have your world turned upside-down.

Turns out those paper condiment carriers are meant to be fanned-out, allowing for easier dipping and ketchup access.

Who knew, all this time?

The proper way to use catsup.

I prefer to carry my own bottle.
