That last photo is just hilarious. A group of people wearing safety goggles so they can pour ketchup out of a bottle. Those lab coats also look brand new.

You can just imagine the photographer saying "quick! everyone! do science!".

They look to me like they are in a lab and its generally a really good idea to stick to safety rules in materials labs.

Q: how many MIT scientists does it take to pour Ketchup out of a bottle?

A: !+!+!+!+!+!=6

Did it never occur to them that they could just turn the bottle upside-down? Is that not why they designed the lids like that; so you could just stand them up on the lid?
Imagine that: we changed the way we store bottles just so that all the ketchup would all come out. Its a simple solution that works, but I think I would still prefer the slippery coating though.
I don't know if you're being sarcastic but Heinz have been selling ketchup in upside down bottles for years now.
