Watch: US Astronauts Bizarre Ketchup-Eating Trick In Space Has The Internet Talking

US Navy test pilot and NASA astronaut Matthew Dominick is busy having fun in zero gravity. The astronaut launched to the International Space Station (ISS) on March 3, 2024, and is serving as a flight engineer aboard the orbiting laboratory. While residing in the ISS, the astronaut has developed an interesting way of eating foods, especially ketchup. Taking to his official X (formerly Twitter) handle, Dominick posted a one-of-its-kind way of eating ketchup. In the caption, he wrote, “This one goes out to all the ketchup lovers out there. Everyone I’ve shared it with either thinks it is awesome or gross. Nothing in between. Also, some interesting science stuff happening…”

In the clip, we see the astronaut shaking a bottle of thick tomato ketchup. Next, he opens the cap and holds the bottle at a little distance from his mouth. What happens next will blow your mind. The ketchup goes into the astronaut’s mouth and builds upon his tongue in the shape of a line. He then pulls it all inside his mouth in a single go.
