Opposite-taste gum

How about this for a new gum product. A gum that produces the opposite taste in the mouth. Did you eat something too salty you're about to throw up? Even if you drink water you'll still have a nasty feeling. Chew the opposite-taste gum which detects saltiness and reverses the taste in your mouth to something sweet. Ate something too hot and chilly? The gum leaves a cool feeling. Its flavor stays neutral, it'll be like a pill to have in your wallet in case of emergency. Restaurants and shops that usually have regular candies by the entrance should stock them too.

Improve crap yogurt packages...

I don't understand why they don't improve yogurt packages so that they don't splash when you open them. Yogurt that is sold in a small plastic container and sealed with paper at the top will splash on you unless you unseal it very very slowly. At the very least, there should be a warning written on the seal telling us to hold the yogurt facing the opposite direction before we open it.

I've opened yogurt packages from many different companies as a test at normal speed and the results were the same. Drops of yogurt splash all over. I think it is time a patent is created for a yogurt package that doesn't splash. It's annoying and it doesn't make sense to me why companies don't improve it...
