- teekert 5y agoI'm thinking, all a glass bottle of Ketchup needs is a smart fridge able to detect that last bit and warn you about how hard it will be to get it out and offer advice on how to do so. Maybe some gamification could be thrown in, get more kudos the less you leave in? Yeah I'm filing patents and will contact Heinz... Think about the opportunity for notifications!
- aspaviento 5y agoWhat about... turning it upside down and let graivity do its job?
- teekert 5y agoThat could be something the fridge can suggest, in email+notification+display on the outside [in flashing red]! You're on to something here! Maybe the slapping hand (that warns you you've opened the fridge enough for the day) can be used to slap the back of the Ketchup bottle as well.
- OneEyedRobot 5y agoIn order to maintain privacy, I'd suggest that the Heinz bottle compare a ketchup image to a hash of over-empty bottles. The iHeinz can then send a notification to the manufacturer who then passes it to the Ketchup Police.
- croon 5y agoMaybe the bottle can include a time crystal that could advance the time by an hour so you don't have to wait for gravity. I'd honestly rather buy ketchup in a refill bag for my plastic bottle than a glass bottle.
- Aditya_Garg 5y agoThe secret is to store the bottle upside down in your fridge. Also works well on honey bottles
- croon 5y agoI do this, with plastic bottles. It's a dangerous game with glass bottles and kids opening the fridge.

- andylynch 5y agoSome folks actually invented a ketchup-phobic bottle coating. Their company is Liquiglide. It also works for many other things- Colgate uses it in some products but Heinz appears to have settled for upside-down bottles.
- cromulent 5y agoThe problem is not just the bottle though, right, it's that ketchup is a non-Newtonian fluid. https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/ketchup-is-not-just-a-condiment-it-is-also-a-non-newtonian-fluid/ https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/ketchup-is-not-ju...
