The complexities of Ketchup

Reasaurant ketchup technology moves so slow.

On the way home from work today, my mother calls me and my sister and asks where we wanted to go for dinner and after about an hour of debate we decided on the Park Place Diner. As we are sitting down waiting to be served, my sister and I begin to have a conversation about something, I can't really quite remeber. And then the waiter comes over and I was silly enough to turn my head for a few moments because the next thing I knew, the waiter and my mother were having a conversatin about Katrina in Louisiana and the waiter was saying how he had a house down there and anyway, it was just very awkward because he had just come to take the drink order.

After my mom apologizing about his house, he finally got the drink order and so much time had passed, that my sister and I were ready for the real order already.

me: I'm ready
sis: Yea, me too
mom: Oh, sorry guys, I guess I'm ready too **give our orders
waiter: (to my mom) Okayyyyyyy, you and the boy get salad bar and you all get soup.

My mom asks for the chicken and i get the onion, my sister skimps on the soup and as soon as the waiter leaves my mom gets up for salad bar, but i hate salad. So here we are, me and my sister talking about some nonsense and i take a look at the ketchup and notice how watery it is.

me: you ever wonder why the restaurant ketchup is still in a glass bottle?
sis: no
me: And man, it's so watery
sis: whatever

So I figue I'll shake it up and get it ready for my fries. SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE.... POP. The cap of the ketchup bottle pops off and the ketchup gets in our sodas on the floor on some lady's dress, just terrible.

Luckily enough the lady didn't seem to mind much, or notice, strangely eough i recieved no retribution from anyone about the rogue ketchup. Very strange, but if the ketchup had been in a plastic bottle, the cap wouldn't have popped off and caused me this dilema.

I don't see why the restaurant can't just buy regular ketchup like the rest of us.
