A significantly bigger Heinz ketchup packet is beginning to appear in restaurants across the nation. The container, formed just like a traditional Heinz bottle having a peel-back lid, holds three occasions more ketchup compared to previous H. J. Heinz Co. squeeze packets.

The business's 'Dip & Squeeze' design often happens to the title, giving ketchup enthusiasts a choice of dunking their fried potatoes rather than attempting to squeeze it, which may be a untidy method to eat - especially during-the-go.

The brand new packets, that have been first introduced this year, began turning up in Chick-fil-A and Worldwide Dairy Full restaurants captured. The ketchup clients are now "near to signing an offerInch with Wendy's restaurants in which the packets are required being obtainable in December, stated Heinz speaker Jessica Jackson. Carl's junior and Hamburger King are testing the packets at this time, she added.

Clients are now able to look for locations providing the packets on Heinz's website.

The Dip & Squeeze marks the very first Heinz Ketchup packet redesign in 42 years, spurred by consumer feedback about the hassle of Heinz's traditional rectangular squeeze pouches.

"We carried out extensive testing to find out the average consumer uses around three from the traditional Ketchup packets, which brought us to look for the size the brand new Dip & Squeeze package," Jackson authored within an email to ABCNews.com. "We're ongoing to utilize our clients to check the brand new package, and also have been happy with consumer excitement that's has produced."

The organization began developing the Dip & Squeeze in 2008, Jackson stated.

This Year, who owns a web-based food delivery business in Michigan prosecuted Heinz, declaring the organization had stolen his idea for that "Dip & Squeeze."

"It might be inappropriate for all of us to discuss ongoing legal matters, so we still think that this situation doesn't have merit," Jackson authored within an email to ABCNews.com.

Heinz Ketchup may be the nation's third best-selling condiment, trumped by Hellmann's mayonnaise and Tostito's salsa, based on Bloomberg Businessweek.
