Default That's it, I am convinced...

...that Nancy McKeon aka Jo from "Facts of Life" is a fanatic about ketchup! I mean, there are a lot of references in "FOL" for example:

Jo: You know what, I AM going with your friend, so eat your heart out! And don't forget to put ketchup on it!

Then there was another episode where Jo was writing down orders for the cafeteria and the dialogue went like this:

Jo: Uh it says here you're ordering 30 more cartons of ketchup. How much ketchup does a person need?
Blair: That depends entirely on your income. The more you make, the less ketchup you use!

THEN in her movie, comfort and joy, her character put ketchup in her stuffing! I think that was Nancy McKeon's idea because she likes it that way. I mean who doesn't??

Then lastly, there are these two photographic evidences:





Nancy McKeon is a ketchup-holic!

I was remembering the ep where Nat was at the truck stop and she was writing a book and she made up characters and Jo was Joanne Burger. There was a scene where Nat and Joanne were talking and Jo was pouring one Ketchup bottle to another and Nat asked if she had been doing this long and she said no I have always been good with my hands.

Actually, that's a common practice in diners, restaurants etc. The purpose is to let the ketchup from one bottle drain into another, that way you don't have a lot of half empty bottles on the counter or tables, and it makes it easier for the customers to pour it out.
