you need to open like 5 of them just to get enough for 1 serving of fries

wouldn't it be easier and produce less waste just to make the packets like 2-3x as big?

disclaimer: i often don't use ketchup or any sauce with my fries

For real, ranch, bbq, etc, all come in these cup ramekin type deals and ketchup has beta ass packets.

The ketchup packet that every where has is really just meant for hot dogs or burgers. Its silly for them to be handing those silly little packets for like a basket of fries

Is it just me or are the actual ketchup pumps with the little paper cups a thing of the past?

I just realized I haven't seen those in ages. Maybe it's just a covid thing?

They used to have dip and squeeze packets.

I ran a wendys test location where we trialed them for Heinz. They were about 4 times a normal packets worth of ketchup. They were so popular that i had people offering me cash for bags full of them.

I think i kept some as a momento. If i can find one ill post a pic.

Heinz makes ketchup cups that can be used as a dipping cup OR as a packet.

And if you use any brand other than Heinz you fail at ketchup.

Granted it's been about 6 months since I've been to a Wendy's, they did have them then.

French's is just as good, cheaper, and saved a buncha Canadian jobs when heinz closed a factory down somewhere up here.

I typically buy French's ever since it became a thing.

Iirc fast food managers bitch about how much money they lose on packets. You'd think places would switch to ketchup cup thing. Unless the packets it make it so inconvenient that enough people just don't ask for them?
