LiquiGlide Will Help Lubricate Your Ketchup

Stubborn ketchup that won’t release from the bottle. You could just bang it on the side — but that takes two hands and effort. No, we want our ketchup, we want it now, and we want gravity to make itself useful. Enter LiquiGlide.

Check out the lubed-up condiments below. And remember to always practice safe lunch.
