"It even bought its design team a minivan to give their ideas real road tests." .....Well $hit...when a company that size buys a team a minivan...you KNOW they are serious!

when they put ketchup in the upside down bottles, that's when things got real

Upside down bottle? What the hell is that? It's still a bottle, you can just rest it on the cap because they made the cap bigger.

Why bother redesigning ketchup packets when there are children that need saving in Haiti. Think of the children. Haiti. Children.

On a somewhat related note, there's a great article by Malcolm Gladwell on why no one has successfully challenged Heinz' dominance in the ketchup arena.

Yeah, and it is pure genius. No more smacking the bottom of a half empty ketchup bottle trying to get it to come out faster.

It was worse when the bottle was made of glass. Those stubborn bottles hurt your palm!

This ketchup is also made by Heinz. Wonder how long before they start rolling out the new packaging, or even if they will?

 

[Newbian]

So now all they need to do is redesign the mustard packets and we will be set...

 

[satyajitmenon]

[SunSamurai]

It took them a team + a van to figure this shit out?

What the fuck.
