Yeah allways pretty good selection in my trucks, renewed and packed for use as needed. Allways have a zip lock bag with a-z condiments for any cooler I take also for my travel trailer. No real surprise a little inovativeness can enhance the worst rations. But then I reload ctr fire ammo too, to get what I want and heaven forbid shotshell ammo. Seems like the more money you have the harder it is to bend your mind back to basics. Lol.mb

When I was 5 my dad left and my mom was severely depressed. I still can't look at a ketchup packet without remembering making tomato soup from a few of them and some hot water after all the other food was gone.

I'm cheap. I save them for hunting trips and Boundary Waters canoe trips. Arby's horseradish sauce or taco sauce can help to spruce up a meal in the backcountry.

Bb I’ve been there too. Mine from a partnership who was a con artist. I would be interested hearing your story. A friend who is no longer alive told me “ it’s called Life “

I really like to eat and don't have time to deal with those tiny packages. Lately, I've been considering packing my own bottles into fast food joints when on the road.

For a long while, I stockpiled Popeye's Cajun Sparkle packets. That stuff was fantastic.
You take 1 packet of Cajun Sparkle, and mix it into a 1 can of potted meat, and serve on saltines. Yum!
I have a drawer next to my recliner where I watch TV. That's where I keep the remotes. I tend to throw sauce packets in that drawer. I just dumped out the drawer and carefully put back only the bare minimum. I do that every 5 years or so.

We buy individual condiment paks from minimus.biz as they’ll send any odd quantity. They have a huge variety which helps us pack for trips.
As mentioned above, the usual lack of a printed expiration date means most of my restaurant paks usually end up in the trash.

Always have an assortment of them in my MRE stash. If there's any food that needs a boost, it's an MRE.
On the other hand, there's nothing like an MRE for a hot meal aboard the boat when fishing all day.

We were sending care packages to Marines and always included various packets of ketchup, Taco Bell hot sauce, and soy sauce. Received a few letters back from them and they always mentioned the condiments. Hope it helped the MRE palatability.

I stash some thinking I’ll put them in the camper or stick some in the food bag for back packing.
They all end up getting tossed.

Figured this was gonna be a picture of ole Slummy at Chick-fil-A. 😜 Chik-fil-a is THE best condiment stand to raid. My bags are teeming when I leave. Tex pete, ketchup dippers, 3 kinds of mayo, plasti-cutlery, even have honey and whipped butter, Hit em up before a camp out or Appalachian Trail odyssey. Can also just fill up your door pockets, if youre 79 years old and still drive a Grenada. Don’t the rain hit them salt packs, roll them windows up.

I usta! Don't no more!
Had an opportunity at a midmorning hunt. Stopped at the local "Hop 'n Sack" and grabbed a couple of corndogs.. I'm flying down the road, chewed the end off a mustard pack, squirted on the corn dog. Noticed I got mustard on my hand too! 😖
Got to camp and was tossing out the "snack trash" and ended up with another hand full of mustard. That's when I noticed that one of the packets I had chewed the corner off, ALSO had a corner chewed off by a "rodent"! 😟
