Jeanine Mason may have been a fan of ketchup once upon a time, but after filming that ketchup scene for Roswell, New Mexico, she isn’t anymore.
Talking with EW after the premiere episode, the 28-year-old actress opened up about that certain scene where she was covered in the condiment.
“It created a gag reflex for me for a while,” she admits. “I’m kind of over it now…but not really! It was so much ketchup!”
After shooting the initial scene, Jeanine recalls having a follow-up scene a week after the initial sequence and getting back into the ketchup-soaked costume was the worst thing.
“I went to put it on and when they pulled it out of the garment bag and it reeked! We put it on me and went upstairs and the crew and Carina [Adly Mackenzie, showrunner] were like, ‘No! We can’t deal with the stink. You’re not going to wear a uniform in the scene!’”
Now, Jeanine is a “mustard fan now.”
