    As an American, that’s a normal small size of mayo. Most of our “regular” sizes are almost double that, this is about the size of those smaller squeeze bottles:

      This bottle design is an utter bastard. You simply can’t get the last bits out of there no matter how much you wait or bang or make it cough and splutter to your food.

      I’m sure someone has actually designed it that way as opposed to designing it in a way that would be best for the consumer.

          Oh yeah I do, like a silicon scraper. But one of those wouldn’t fit into one of those tiny shop mayo squeezer bottles.

          The openings on these generic mayo bottles is like 3cm, whereas on the squeezer mayo bottle, it’s like less than one.

          But aye, the silicon scrapers “mini-spatulas” are great at scraping anything. Saves me like 5% of loss on with my blender, lol. Also really goot when you’re prepping things for freezing.

            I think the standard for squeeze bottles are 3cm. That’s what 99% of ketchup bottles I have ever seen are.

            Just measured my Kraft squeeze mayo in my fridge and it’s 3cm.

            I use my mini spatulas to clean my ketchup containers

            Personally I don’t use enough Mayo to run out before I need to replace the bottle. If I got the same size jar it would be the same thing, I’m not scraping out the last bits of months old mayo either way. Doesn’t sound appealing.

        I don’t need to worry about that because I just refill it from a larger container

          Yeah don’t do that multiple times. One or two times isn’t going to kill you but if you did it for years and had pieces of ancient mayo in there that sounds like a health concern.

          I’ll go get a new knife if I have to open up a new jar to finish something.
