Heinz revamps ketchup packets

Media_httpiicomcomcnw_yhvvi

Heinz doesn’t mess with its winning ketchup strategy often — other than that brightly-colored EZ Squirt crap — but, after 40 years, the ketchup kings finally overhauled its famous condiment packets. Since 1968, fast food lovers have stressed about how to smother their fries in ketchup without making a huge mess. Fret no more because Heinz’s new Dip & Squeeze packets can be opened in two ways, perfect for french fries dunking and hamburger topping.

Oodles of design inspiration with a side of fries.

Doesn't seem like a step in the eco direction to me.

Now I can drive and have my fries with ketchup while I'm on the phone.

It is somewhat MORE eco friendly as it has not only a recyclable factor that the regular packets have, it also has 3x the amount of ketchup and an ability to have more ketchup used than the current packet design.

Now if they would just not put 140 of them in my bag I would be happy. =P

(Did you ever notice that if you ask for 2-3 you either get 15 or 0?)
