Bring your hand to your mouth as if you were about to take a bite out of a hamburger.
Did you notice you did not hold the imaginary hamburger on a plane orthogonal to gravity?
Now:
Take your average (unsliced) hamburger bun and slice it at a canted angle in such a manner that the meat patty
sits at a 15 degree incline.
Now bite into the low-side, (after adding desired condiments), and the gooey condimenty goodness is less wont to spill out the back.

Pretty sure the squish out the back is more related to extrusion pressure than gravity. I think any inccline great enough to overcome that is going to result in things sliding out the front. |
|
|
What's really needed is standard hamburger buns (perhaps slightly oversized) with a pocket instead of a slice (like pocket pita, but more bready/squooshy) |
|

Try not to focus on the faulty assumtions of this idea so much, [MechE]. |
|
|
I like the principle, but what happens if you rotate the burger accidentally? You could have an even worse chance of drippage. [+] anyway, though. |
|
|
all very well and good but did you extend your little finger at a jaunty but dainty angle? |

I knew what "ortho" meant, but I had to google "ganal".
I really wish I hadn't. |

[Gisho], was your annotation in reference to my idea? Or was it sexual innuendo referring to some technique I am unaware of? |
|
|
And, of course, [Po]. T'would be uncivilised elsewise. |
|
|
I've heard he, you know ... likes to "rotate the burger" |
|
|
Surely what's needed here is a non-orientable klein
bun, so gravity wouldn't know which way to go.
Although I'm not certain where you put the relish. |

Yeah, should have been "orthogonad" - go google. |
|

Also, can I point out that this idea, refined over several tens
of generations, culminates in the invention of the Scotch
Egg? This is essentially an animal-based filling with a bread-
based coating, but which is designed to be equally eatable at
any orientation in which a Scotsman is likely to find himself. |

However, MikeD's embryonic reinvention of this culinary
wheel gets my canted bun. |
