...they probably all add more sugar than they used to - people seem to want everything sweeter now and don't like the vinegary taste in things.
I don't know if it's more sugar but more corn syrup in place of cane or beet sugar. Corn syrup has a different taste for a given sweetness and probably alters the proportions between ingredients which alters the overall taste.
Yeah this would work tapping anywhere on the neck but it's good marketing to tap on the 57. I read a study done years back and people had a much higher rating for ketchup out of the glass bottles than the new plastic bottles or those packets etc. Seems nostalgia does have a taste.
Most of have always tapped a ketchup bottle with our palm which in effect does the same thing. The novelty is the idea that tapping the 57 symbol is a trick to make the ketchup flow.
I think it's a lost cause by now, SATX, lol. I'm often not clear enough about what I mean in my posts.

Lol, I don't think I ever did that, but I don't think I would have had a problem with it. Loved Bosco. I think Ralph's/Kroger is selling it again.

Lol, I can see that. And newer packaging always just looks kind of hokey to me for some reason.

Yep, the ol' knife trick always worked, even in the bottle.
Some of you are comparing the different flavors and ingredients. It's weird because I do notice differences in different brands of foods, but I've never paid that much attention when it comes to ketchup. I definitely like it less sweet, though.

There was a movement away from glass containers in general for a while, and now the pendulum is swinging back.
