Who designed this piece of rubbish?

Have any of you ketchup fiends looked at the price comparison for the plastic bottles against the glass bottles? Not only are you using too much, but you're paying more for the priviledge.

..................and I bet none of you clean the cap either.
 
It's not just the amount of ketchup that comes out with those squeezy bottles, I find the accuracy incredibly poor as well. The lid where it comes out is so large that it's hard to tell exactly where the bottle is pointing - crucial when the sauce comes out at 100mph.

There's no option about squeezing gently because the pressure builds up as none comes out, and then it all comes out at once. I really don't know how that bottle could fail more.

If you have to use tomato ketchup to improve the flavour of your food, you're not cooking it properly.

Thats like saying if you think of a threesome your not doing it with your wife/girlfriend properly.

We all like a little something different everynow and then.
 
Especially if the meal is tomato based! Which doesn't seem to stop my housemate dousing his food in it. Don't think he ever does it when I cook though. I'll put forward the badly cooked food argument to him :)

Yeah it's all well and good until you're sick (do not eat if you feel unwell) and it comes out your nose. THAT hurts! :(

As for the ketchup issue I agree with Dave here. The initial spurt of ketchup is unmanageable once you get to a half-full bottle situation. Sure you can control it a fraction of a second later, but by then it's too late.

Sorry but if you find that difficult to use properly you must have some kind of severe mental disability.

Secondly they're much better than the glass bottles.
 
You need to squeeze pretty hard to get it going. This is where you almost always miss your target and get a big splodge, but once it is flowing you can release a lot of pressure and it will still flow. With practice, you can get as much out af you want.
 
These bottles are the work of satan (or Fox).

Apply gentle pressure, nothing happens.
Apply firm pressure, nothing happens.
Apply heavy pressure, rubber flap in the lid finally gives way and dumps half a pint of source on the side of your plate.

Repeat the final step for the wole family and you get through the bottles too damn quick.

Bring back the old plastic bottles! :mad:
 
I love that bottle persoanlly, doesn't spill and actually throws out everything in the bottle, unlike some brands.
Anyhow just dump abotu half of what you need quickly , then spread it with ** finger or tounge or a spoon or whatever to the layer you want to, or put in on a plate and dip your stuff into it.



Yep Mayo >>>>>> Ketchup :), but then again that's dutch & belgian tradition, here in out 2 tiny countries everybody loves mayo on his/her fries, haven't met 1 person here yet that prefers ketchup instead of mayo.
 
Shake it, make sure the nozzle is facing down and where u want it to go when you open the lid and squeeze as lightly as possible, if you move it over your food then do it in a way which is fast and efficiant.

I used to get well annoyed with these, i cant stand the glass ones, there is no way of controling these..

I defy anybody to be able to control the amount of ketchup that comes out of these bottles.
If you have got any tips how to get a nice even flow out of one of these bottles then please pass them on.

I guess you cover your food in it then?

For me... I put a little puddle/pile to the side of my food & dip... that way the ketchup doesn't make the food soggy and you can mediate how much you want.
