Heinz Ketchup Speed -
Is that the glass bottle type, or the squeezy one before you realise you left that anoying bit of plasticised foil under the lid that just won't peel off, so you get a knife to it and it explodes?!?!?! |

Heinz have a patented way of pouring sauce from their glass bottled ketchup!
Instead of shaking it up and down, you should roll the bottle between the palms of your hands. As if you were trying to make a worm out of playdoh? And it works! It's amazing what you learn when you're drunk in a kebab shop! |

That's worrying! I think all donkeys should be fitted with a black box so we can discover why!
