Should never have been a discussion. It can stay unrefrigerated until opened. Like so many other products. People really keep their sugary fruit paste open in the pantry?
Ever been to a restuarant that offers ketchup?
I've worked in many. You have to dump the ketchup weekly to wash the containers, then refill them.
I’ve been keeping (opened) bottles of ketchup in the cupboard all my life. It’s full of vinegar. It’s never gone bad, tasted off or made me get sick. I prefer room temperature ketchup over cold ketchup.
Real question is where do you keep your beans.
In my stomach
In my feed.
Was there even a discussion? Cupboard until opened, then fridge.
Why even switch? Just put it directly in the fridge, even unopened.
Put my fridge in the cupboard we both win
Warm catsup gang.
