like the idea. I'd not use it on the road as implied by the article, but
stopping for a burger in a fast food joint, it makes dipping easier. Used
to be, you'd have to squeeze it out on the burger wrapper. It can get messy
that way.

Once in a while I'll eat a burger while driving, but I'm not going to dip
fries as it is too much of a distraction, not to mention a potential mess
even with the new pack.

Total silliness... how is the larger packet less messy... if anything
it's more messy because there is more product for the dyslexic slobs
to be messy with. This is simply a ploy for selling more ketchup and
at a higher price, that'll generate more waste of product and more
waste of packaging.

I like the fact that it holds three times as much as those little
packets.

It looks exactly like those jelly packs/tubs that have been around
forever - you have to wonder what kind of brainiacs they have at Heinz
that it took them so long to revamp the container....

Just something else for the pinheads to steal that
will raise the cost of restaurant food for the honest folks.

On the rare occasion I eat fast food I always use lots of packs and
they are a pita and lots gets wasted. It's hard to get the stuff out
without getting some on your fingers. I like the pumps with the
little cups you can fill up. No waste and you can get what you want.

Ya, ketchup in a car would be a problem.

So how many packets do you steal on a typical visit?
