Very nice, does anyone make 16mm scale ketchup bottles that look like giant tomatoes?
Decades ago in greasy spoons, you might sometimes find they'd also have large yellow and brown squeezy tomatoes, for mustard and brown sauce. Surreal. You'll have to make the set.

I still come across the coloured squeezy bottles snow and again. I must eat in some classy places! One of my haunts has four different colours, red - tomato sauce, brown - brown sauce, yellow - salad cream (I see they want to rename it!) and white - mayonnaise.

They just need the congealed runs of cheap ketchup adding and they would be ideal.
If at first you don't succeed, use a bigger hammer!
