MIT’s Freaky Non-Stick Coating Keeps Ketchup Flowing
- fleitz 14y agoAnother disruptive technology, the ketchup industry better take note! I wonder how it works with a full bottle?
- squires 14y ago1) Is it toxic? 2) Does it affect the flavor in any way? 3) Have we forgotten about the existence of plastic squeezable bottles?
- Karunamon 14y agoThis one's been making the rounds a lot recently.. that said, I am curious about two things: Firstly, the edibility of this stuff. I know they said they only used food grade things, but really that won't go anywhere until it goes through the insanely expensive FDA approvals process. Secondly, if it'll catch on. I can see marketers running wild with this, but on the other hand I can see companies have a vested interest in you not using all of the product you buy.
- jtreminio 14y agoI never had an issue with this, because I shake the bottle vigorously for 2 seconds before taking the top off, and the ketchup flows much more smoothly.
- ktizo 14y agoScrew ketchup. what does it do in pumps?
- rapind 14y agoAgreed. It just reduces friction right? Seems like it would be useful for a lot of things (like engine oil? exterior of a spacecraft?, etc.).
