I was in middle school with a guy who ate a tremendous amount of ketchup, I feel like it must have started as a shock value thing, but who knows why other people do things. A bottle a day for him at lunch was not unheard of.

He was not a healthy kid, dude was pretty overweight and had heartburn problems, again this was in middle school. I remember him having to leave school for a bit because of serious stomach problems and then when he came back he was on a super restrictive diet. I think I only ever saw him eating green vegetables and basic salads after that.

You should’ve seen that kid’s hops, though. He’d already maxed out Jumping, so he didn’t need any more ketchup.

Including the plastic bottle? If not, I’ll start jumping annoyingly high within a few weeks

It’s just the bottle. They didn’t say anything about the contents.

Can I spread it out? How many ketchup packets are in a bottle?

Okay but is it like a video game where you can only jump a set distance? No more no less?

Just jump at an angle, but also landing might be a problem

Assuming it’s multiplicative, you would have to consume 140 ketchup bottles to jump twice as high

If it’s over time that’s easily doable

A bottle a day for a year might be stomach-able. You’d be able to jump about 6x a normal person which would easily land you some long-jump Olympic medals.

do it for 2 years to get 38x

What about the landing? If I jump 30’ straight up that’s probably the last time I’m going to be jumping.

Is there a size limit on the bottles? Could I get the minibar equivalent of a ketchup bottle?

More importantly, does this stop the negative effect of falling from greater heights?

Ketchup is one of the only things I know will send me into a full autistic meltdown. It’s so fucking gross.
