As everybody should know by now, the gold standard of salsa dipping corn chip is the Frito Lay Tostitos bite-size chip, manufactured in Plano Texas cooperatively by both Mexican and American citizenry.
The chip is made from the perfect ingredients- Nebraska Corn, Utah salt, and a touch of black pepper
from the pepper farms of Belize, sized and shaped perfectly to prevent double dipping, with just enough cross-sectional rigidity to experience structural failure only in the rarest of circumstances, with some cold cheese dips.
Frito Lay also manufactures a variety of dips and salsas to use with these wonderful chips.
Problem: These perfect round chips do not conform to the flat bottom of bowls to get the last of the salsa, creating waste and contributing to a lack of cleanliness. Breaking a chip in two to create flat scraping surfaces works, but it results in chips of sub optimal size and shape.
Solution: When the chips are dipped in thick enough, non-fluidic dips, a trough resembling a section of a toroid is left behind. Create bowls in which the lowest point is itself a similarly shaped toroidal section. Needs legs to balance.
The perfect chip

Just get a taco salad bowl for your salsa. The bowl
is the last chip. |
|
|
This is a well rounded idea that fits into toroids like me. |
|
|
I find that, if the cat won't eat it, a finger or two work fine as a spatula; they're already full of crud from the chip dust anyways. However, yes: square potatoes. |

Stainless steel cylindrical salsa tank with conical base, and dual
slide-valve
depositor at outlet. Heavy
weight to pressurize salsa. |
|
|
Push button, get optimised salsa blob on chip. Weight has
neoprene ring
seal and matches interior of tank to ensure no salsa is left
behind. |

Wow, 8th, with such a device, you could completely eliminate the need for single-dip chips, and avoid the need for as much structural integrity! |
|
|
8th of 7's idea, but instead of home made and have to clean
the salsa tank, maybe someone will put Salsa in a
pressurized can like whipped cream. |
