Built to resemble its famous Pisa namesake,
the Leaning Tower of Kechup, will solve the
problem of extracting the last remnants of
the precious flavour that usually lies
stubbornly stuck at the bottom of the
bottle.
In future you will simply slide your nearly
empty bottle upside-down inside
the
Leaning Tower replica, where it will
remain at the perfect angle until ready for
use.

noway, I spent decades mastering the art of upside-down ketchup bottle balancing. |

[xenzag] = practical to a fault. Does anyone else here have as many buns? |

Yes. Not me, but others, certainly. |

As to the idea, it's an upside down
ketchup holder. It holds the ketchup
upside down. That's what it does. The
fact
that it looks like something else
*entirely unrelated* makes it all the
more
pointless as an idea. |
|
| |
Should be adaptable for bottles containing Brown sauce, or Mustard ... |
|
| |
Wonderul. With other additions for other types of bottles, or maybe a plastic snap clip that keeps the bottle closed. |
|

I like this idea as part of a psychological test on how near to an existing product an idea can be to still be considered novel and/or good. On a scale of closeness i mark this idea a 8.5 (0 being something never-heard-of, that does something never-heard-of and 10 being a ketchup holder that holds the bottles at 89.999° rather than 90° for no purpose) and vote [-]. |

Don't all modern ketchup bottles sit upside down by design? |

//Don't all modern ketchup bottles sit upside down by design?// Yeah, but this one has the additional contrivance of looking a bit like a famous italian landmark. Other building-ketchup crossovers might include bottles that look like the Gherkin (though that might be reserved for the storage of actual Gherkins), or Big Ben (though that would be best utilised for HP Sauce), or The Empire State building - basically, pick a tower, and then imagine sauce coming out of it. |

//basically, pick a tower, and then imagine sauce coming out of it// You're very saucy yourself these days, or is that vinegar?.... it's not that serious you know. May a little more sunshine come your way :-) |
|
| |
It's not vinegar, I can assure you - just having a little fun (that anno was supposed to be funny, in a kind of dead-pan way) - it's not serious at all. |
|
| |
Having said that, I will take you up on that sunshine : ) |

How about the Frank Ghery ketchup squeezable container? It doesent' matter how badly you squeeze it, throw it, smash it or bend it, It will still look like a Frank Ghery building... |
