PEOPLE are just realising where you're supposed to store Heinz Ketchup - but not everyone agrees with the official verdict.
The question of whether to leave the famous sauce in the cupboard or fridge has bugged consumers since it first went on sale in 1869.
Whether to keep it cool, or leave it at room temperature has long been on the minds of shoppers.
But Heinz has finally put the dilemma to bed, tweeting that the red stuff should in fact be put - in the fridge.
Posting on Twitter, the firm recently said: "FYI: Ketchup. goes. in. the. fridge!!!"
From tongue scraping to saying no, here are 12 health trends to try in 2023
The post has been liked over 18,000 times with a number of shoppers agreeing the sauce should be kept cool.
One said: "My ketchup goes straight from the fridge, to my eggs, back to the fridge."
A second said: "Yes Heinz. Can you tell my boyfriend to do so. He keeps it on the counter top."
But not everyone is in agreement, despite labels saying the sauce should be refrigerated after being opened for the first time.
One joked: "No it doesn't. You stick to production and I'll deal with the consumption."
Meanwhile, another added: "Nobody wants cold sauce with hot food."
A third said: "But if I keep it in the fridge, it will make my chips cold. I don't think you've thought this through."
It comes after Heinz brought back an "iconic" 1990's childhood favourite.
The food company reintroduced Heinz Beans Pizzas to Iceland shelves in November after they disappeared from supermarkets.
However, in January, it provoked anger by doubling the price of some of its products within a year.

Peppa Pig snap pots shot up 100% from £1 to £2, while a three-pack of Heinz 200g Beanz tins rose from £1 to £1.79.

In total, Heinz was found to have pushed up prices on 500 items across all major supermarkets.
How to save money on your supermarket shop
Food inflation slowed to 16.5% in June, but still remains at one of the highest levels in 15 years.
It means everyday items such as cooking sauces and eggs are costing more than the same time last year.
But there are ways to save money on your food shop if you've felt the impact in your pocket.
It's worth joining up to as many loyalty schemes as you can.
Sainsbury's, Tesco, Morrisons are but a few that have them and offer you exclusive discounts on thousands of products.
You'll be able to build up loyalty points to use towards future purchases as well.
Meanwhile, you can save money on your fruit and veg by picking up a wonky veg box.
The boxes are available in a number of supermarkets, including Lidl, and charge you a massively reduced price.
Asda also sells discounted veg boxes for £3.50 while Sainsbury's has a similar scheme where you can bag £2 boxes which have enough fresh veg to feed a family of four for five days.
