The Tale of the Exploding Ketchup

by iheartbadtz:mymelody.com

Piece of trivia: did you know that if ketchup spoils, it lets off gases that make it explode? Not making the bottle “Kablooey!”, mind, but it will let off the gases very loudly, almost like the sound of a tire exploding, once you take off the cap. How do I know this, you ask? Because it happened to me just last week.o_o

So there I was on the table, ready for breakfast. I just woke up, so I was still pretty sleepy. I had some scrambled eggs as part of my breakfast. Seeing that the bottle of ketchup wasn’t on the table, I got up to get it. I sat back down, twisted the cap, and then KABOOM! My mom, who was in the bathroom at that time taking a shower, rushed out, asking almost hysterically what the explosion was - and why I screamed. I was shocked, but then began to mutter something like, “Bottle, ketchup, explode, bottle, ketchup, explode, bo…” Well, the bottle itself was intact, but smoke was streaming out of it, and the cap was on the floor, where it landed after it flew off. As for me? Aside from uttering one word at a time, one side of my face stang a bit. Hey, it might have just been air pressure that hit me, but it was a very strong blast all the same. I don’t know how the ketchup became spoiled, maybe it’s because of the place it was stored in, but still… I don’t think I’ll ever look at a bottle of ketchup the same way again. Ever.

 

Ick. Just realized: did the ketchup, er, fart on me? o_O
