Storing
Condiments
By Joseph Parish
I would like to
share a little hint with my site
visitors. If you happen to think
that I am a little on the weird side
then think about what I am going to
say for just a little bit longer.
Regardless of what I happen to be
doing, I am always on the lookout
for anything that relates to
survival. In this case, I am
referring to the free condiment
packages which are usually provided
with fast food. I currently have
managed to save a small pail of
these valuable items as well as
purchasing many of my own.
I grab a few extras anytime a
restaurant generously offers them to
me. I grab them anytime the
sales-person says “Would you like
salt, pepper or ketchup with your
take out.”
In my current collection I have
containers of salt, pepper, sugar,
ketchup, plastic forks, spoons and
knives, honey, Equal, mayo, mustard
and various BBQ sauces. I may
perhaps have enough to actually
maintain a small fast food
establishment for about one week.
Don’t get me wrong as I do not act
in an irresponsible and greedy
manner, but merely take a few extra
each time. You would be surprised at
how fast these tend to add up.
Condiments should be an important
aspect of all food storage plans
since they tend to make plain, bland
food taste a lot better.
In addition, when you need some mayo
as an example why would you wish to
open a complete bottle when you are
in a survival situation and
refrigeration facilities may not be
available. Opening one or two of the
condiment packs makes a lot more
sense. You will have less waste in
the long run.
In addition to those at the fast
food shops, I have purchased
complete boxes through places such
as SAM’s club at very reasonable
process. Why not give them a try and
you may someday be glad you did.
