Remember when there was only glass ketsup (sp?) bottles?

[gonelifting]

Did any of you think they should be made of plastic, the way they are now? I told my wife for years they should do that because the bottles were worthless. It took them a while to figure it out.

Anyone else have the idea way before it happened?

That would get to me too.

I wonder what it was like for people to live in that world, 20 years ago. When the ketchup came in glass bottles.

lol, 13 billion market cap. net income $500million-$1billion/year I don't know that they control the world though, what do you mean?

There's a "ketchup mafia" and they OWN it.

you have a better chance of building a rocket ship to mars, then trying to get even 1% of the ketchup market in the restaurant/fast food world.

they even *own* the name: KETCHUP!
