PLTW Students Find Solution to Watery Ketchup

It all started with the phrase, “It really bugs me when…” That led two Liberty high school students to come up with a solution to a better ketchup cap.

Two Liberty North High School seniors said they are taking your condiments experience to a whole new level.

After much consideration for a [PLTW Engineering Design and Development] class assignment to come up with a problem — big or small –”anything that really bugged us,” says Tyler Richards — they decided on ketchup.

“When you turn it over and squeeze it, the water comes out and it’s really nasty,” Richards said.
