    Have worked off and on in food service for two decades.

    They get refilled at the end of the night or in the morning. And never see a refrigerator.

    But ketchup is basically acid and sugar, not a great environment for microorganisms.

      Yes, the acid makes it OK to be out for a while. A day, not months, which is a more typical lifespan for a home bottle.
