Who knew?!

A cheeseburger isn’t the same without a good dollop of ketchup and to be fair, some people eat it with absolutely everything.

If you’ve ever ran out of red sauce, (a major dilemma for some), and found yourself furiously shaking the bottle in order to get the last drop out, this trick is going to come in very handy.

Although in saying that, Chef fans won’t be happy as this hack only relates to Heinz tomato ketchup.

Spotted on The Mirror, it’s all to do with the ’57’ on the front of the Heinz bottle.

A spokesperson for Heinz explained the secret to the publication:

“To release ketchup faster from a glass bottle, here is a little secret from Heinz.

“The sweet spot to tap on the Heinz bottle is the embossed 57 on the neck.

“All you need to do is apply a firm tap where the bottle narrows, and the ketchup will come out easier”.

There’s another option too:

“Alternatively, you can easily squeeze your ketchup by choosing a plastic top down bottle of Heinz Tomato Ketchup with its special stay clean cap”.

Apparently, according to Heinz, only 11 percent of people know about the ’57’ trick but considering this story is all over the internet, that percentage is set to increase considerably.
