MIT Team Creates Ketchup Bottle That Pours with ease

ketchup-lab

A radical new bottle design from the MIT university team will help you get the last dollop of ketchup, mayo, mustard, or any other condiment with ease. The team came up with LiquiGlide, a ‘super-slippery’ coating which makes the insides of the bottle so frictionless that the sludgy goo inside just slides out like water.

The results are astonishing – and any burger and chips fan out there should prepare to be amazed.

The secret ingredient to the liquid coating is a heavily-guarded secret, but the team promise it is non-toxic and will be FDA approved.

Can it be recycled? No word on that yet.
