Re: Do you keep condiments from take-out meals?

Huh?  So instead of a candy, some kid gets a packet of ketchup??

Re: Do you keep condiments from take-out meals?

I  kind of wonder what the life expectancy is of these packets.

 

I think I should go through the ones I have in the refrigerator.  They are in a little Lock & Lock container but if they go bad I need to get rid of them.  I've had some for many years.

 

I wonder if the soy sauce is ok.

They (the ketchup) seem to open a lot easier than duck sauce and soy sauce. Always have to get out scissors .

  I save the plastic utensils because we use them. I toss the packets of dressings & seasonings.

Yes, bring them to work and keep in my drawer for when I need them for the lunches that I bring from home.

I never eat restaurant food and there are no condiments in my house. I have no need for them.

Re: Do you keep condiments from take-out meals?

I only keep a few to keep in my handbag when eating out.

I love Texas Pete hot sauce, not every restaurant carries it.

I have a few packets in my purse at all times.

 

I'm more likely to save the Equal packets for my coffee & tea.

 

Another item not carried by all restaurants.  I don't use the pink or yellow stuff.
