Many cooks have probably paid attention to how the neck of a bottle of vegetable oil is designed.

In most cases, a plastic plug is installed in this part of the container.

After removing the ring, the slits become visible. Some housewives are sure that the "mesh" that appears acts as a dispenser.

However, if you analyze how the oil flows from this nozzle, it becomes clear that the stream of viscous liquid does not become so thin.

And all because the slots perform a slightly different task.

What is the nozzle for?

A dispenser can be installed on a bottle of vegetable oil.

And we are not talking about a plastic attachment that is already on the container, but about a completely different device that needs to be purchased separately.

This metal "thing" fits into the bottle without any problems. And all thanks to... the above-mentioned nozzle.

Thus, the slots are designed specifically for the installation of a reusable dispenser.

Thanks to the plastic “mesh”, the metal device is fixed easily and quickly.

Now the oil will pour correctly: in the right volume and without contamination.
