Fast Food Condaments

#1 Postby mamadude » Thu Apr 24, 2003 2:48 pm

How many of you have those fast food ketchup packets from Mc Donalds, Wendys..ETC or the sause for the nuggets, or the fire sauce from taco bell...or the soy sause packets from the local chinese restaurant? I looked in my kitchen drawer and it just hit me I could open my own business and sell these items back, I swear i have a ton of all the above. SO does anyone else save this stuff? if so let me know what ya got..LOL

We (my family) used to save these packets when we were getting food from fast food restaurants more often... we had a container full of them. Haven't had this type of food anymore (maybe would help me gain needed weight if we did) so, I don't believe we even have one of these such packets in the house. :)

I do. Have to go through my kitchen drawers and clean them out with all the packets at least once a month. Worst thing is though - when one of them breaks or gets punctured - oh the mess it makes.

That sounds like kewl trick to pull weatherwunder!!
We save all that stuff. Saves on having to buy the things and with only two people in the house, one of those mustards or ketchup bottles lasts until it's a science project in the fridge!

Whatever packets are left (horseradish, etc.) I use them to make a sandwich.

I used to have ketchup in the fridge.Got rid of it.
They would be good to have with hurricane supplies though.Flavor your food and they don't take up much room.
