One of our prep tasks in the afternoon before the restaurant opened was to "combine" the ketchup bottles on each table. You'd take a half empty bottle, open the cap, wipe the opening off with the rag you wiped off all the other bottles with, open up another half-filled or less bottle and pour the ketchup into the first bottle until it was filled, then place it back on the table. Years ago, I could see inside a kitchen of local restaurant and they had this deal that did this, there were 10 or less than full bottles that were draining into a funnel type thing that consolidated the ketchup into one bottle - gag. That is a standard practice. If they do not have ketchup in foil packets or in a pump (shout out In N Out) they are doing that. And yet, some how, we are all still here. We all made it. Amazing. Its almost like we were designed to live in close quarters with other humans. Spreading germs to each other and what not to make our immunity better. Ketchup bottles and salt shakers... get a grip. You should probably use a napkin anytime you open a door if you are worried about pepper shakers. Not any longer - this is why you only see disposable ketchup "bottles". One and done. It used to be you'd combine the ketchup bottles - there was a percentage of ketchup that grew old and went bad because it never got changed out. This led to an outbreak of illnesses traced back to this practice. I think that went away years ago.

I never took the covid shot and I never got really sick form having it three times. I agree with Mark being to clean isn't necessary good either, but I don't really want to eat after someone licked my fork either. I am just not going to freak out over some little stuff. just my .02
