Title: Interesting Web Site (food)
Post by: cobbs1 on Mar 24, 2006, 08:11 AM
I was looking for a place to buy condiments in packages without buying in bulk (don't really need 200 packets of ketchup).  Found this website:
 
http://www.minimus.biz/foodmain.aspx (//%22http://www.minimus.biz/foodmain.aspx%22)
 
Was able to order ketchup, mayo, salad dressing, etc. and now we don't have to worry about packing jars in the cooler. I always wonder when we get back home if I should throw out the mayo that's been in the cooler (usually do).  Best part was being able to pick the quantities.  I'll just leave the packets in the food bin. :)   I had fun looking through the items they offer.  Had to control myself!  
Just ordered the other day, so I have no comments on customer service or quality, yet.

Nice site, I collect little packets from carry out joints. Arbys sauce is on my list of favorites :)

Good reference site for maybe future needs.

I, too, when stopping at the fast food places, by mere coincidence, always seem to tote off with a bunch of their condiments, which seem to find their way into a round plastic container  in the "spice" cabinet of my little Starcraft.

That was DH's idea as well (fast food joints), but I actually use these for other events as well and would have to "borrow" a large amount. ;)   Plus, they have Ken's salad dressing which I really like!
 
Look's like I'm not the only one who doesn't want to get work done this Friday morning!

I agree with everyone else.  This is a good find.  Now I'm not going to buy single Splenda packets, but I like the little bottles of Tabasco and the Jelly packs.

Thanks for posting it.

Got my box of packets last weekend.  Everything looks good to me. No busted packets or anything. It also appears that they are good with quality control.  I discovered that someone mis-counted the number of ketchup packets and they enclosed a seperate little plastic bag with the rest of the packets.  Nice job! :)
 
One note,  I chose the free shipping.  It took a while, but the box made it intact.  Just don't choose the free shipping if you are in a hurry.
