I've managed to do so for more than 30 years, at least enough to not be subjected to the perils of watery ketchup.

The issue is not the ketchup or the actual problem. It is the techniques that they are learning in a classroom to use engineering and design to solve a problem. It teaches them to to systematically work through manufacturing processes.

These guys obviously have smarts and will end up in a good high paying career.

Thanks for pointing this out to this bunch of C-D Forum dullards. Now correct the grammar in your last sentence.

I think my mother taught me to do that back in about 1945. It works.

I been doing it now for 68 years and it has worked every time. Handy part is it requires no alteration of the bottle or cap and the "Free" price tag makes it affordable.

I think next I will expand my horizons and try it on the squeeze mustard bottle.

Yet another gadget that requires more plastic, more manufacturing, more waste, etc. Some inventions are beneficial - this one has no merit in my opinion.

Shake the bottle and you will get the same result.

In spite of it not being a needed product. I think the two young men should be commended for their creativity.

It is good to see young people, identify a problem and develop a solution.
