Wall Street Journal said:
After observing these and other "compensating behaviors," H. J. Heinz Co. says it spent three years developing a better ketchup packet.

Heinz says the new "Dip and Squeeze" packets will begin replacing the traditional rectangular ketchup packets later this year at Wendy's Co. restaurants. Smaller chains including Chick-fil-A Inc., Smashburger Master LLC, and International Dairy Queen Inc. started carrying the packets earlier this year.

Is world peace just around the corner?

Where were you when Heinz finally moved on from the old packets?

I was in an ambulance, having just been struck on my bicycle by a minivan whose driver was putting ketchup on his fries while driving.

While talking on the phone and shaving no doubt.
 
These dip/squeeze packets are awesome. Seriously, they are really cool.

PS: You know you're at a cheap eatery when they have Hunts ketchup.

Yes, I was, but I still think it was his fault!

Awesome.

Personally I think that "dip and squeeze" sounds a bit kinky... Where was Jill when the new packets were introduced? Getting dipped and squeezed by Jack.
