Two examples are the sauces (illustrated) from Bull’s Eye and Hunt’s. The “Bull’s Eye” brand name, which is owned by Mondelez, is selling its newly launched Hot Chili BBQ Sauce in a transparent bottle with a content of 425ml. The bottle features all-round embossing to ensure a better grip and a brand name logo embossed in the area of the neck. The bottle is sealed by means of a screw closure which is secured prior to initial opening by an all-round paper label. The second, likewise transparent, bottle is a honey and mus- tard sauce from Messrs. “Hunt’s” with a content of 510gr and a screw-on hinge lid with dispenser opening. Prior to initial opening the closure needs to be unscrewed and a sealing membrane removed. www.kraftbrands.com/BullsEyeBBQ Jim Beam cuts the mustard The German company The Food Company GmbH based in Mülheim is marketing within the retail / wholesale sector 263ml of mustard with a small quantity of Jim Beam Bourbon Whiskey added to it.
