And then someone had the great idea to create "dripless" bottle caps for both mustard and ketchup. Now my hotdogs always end up with a huge blob of mustard on one end.
- post_break 9y agoShoving a chop stick into the cap can "fix" this for you.
- deelowe 9y agoPerfect.
- qbrass 9y agoI have a close relative that works for the company that invented the valves in them. They used to make stuff like keyboard membranes, until China ran the price down too low to compete. An employee figured out how to make a cheap valve using most of the same tooling and the company patented it. Someone in sales got Pepsi to put them in All Sport bottles, and it saved the company. Now the people in sales try to solve everyone's problem with them.
