A few weeks ago I was at Chick-Fil-A with the family and we had gotten our meals and I went to go get some ketchup and I spotted this. A ketchup packet on steroids.
Ketchup Packet on Steroids = Awesome
And let me preface this by saying that it is truly the little things in life that excite me. On this day, it was a ketchup packet. My sister understands this and I am sure right now she is nodding in agreement. I am pretty sure this particular ketchup packet in fact would excite her too. (That is why I love her.)
My husband who also understands me takes more of a “shaking his head” approach (he might not admit it but I do think it’s because of these things that he loves me), however he knew as soon as I grabbed this ketchup packet because of the look on my face he said, “You’re blogging about this aren’t you?” And it was more of a statement than a question.
Indeed I am.
It is a blogworthy ketchup packet.
And honestly now after seeing it I haven’t a clue why they hadn’t invented it before now! It doesn’t make any sense! Now all we need is for it to catch on! (Or catch up! Get it? OK, that was bad. I know. Sorry.)
So I grabbed the aforementioned ketchup packet, in awe of its grandeur and beauty, because I don’t think you know this about me, but I have an intense love for ketchup. So much love for the ketchup.
It is by far my favorite condiment. It even passes ranch.
I love it on everything. Eggs, steak, FRIES, hotdogs, hamburgers, rice (yes, rice. ketchup with rice is one of my favorite meals in the world.)
Perhaps now you can see the root of my excitement.
Perhaps not.
And I sincerely apologize if my enthusiasm about ketchup is annoying and somewhat gross as I’ve heard from the “ew’s” in response to my love of rice and ketchup in the past. I get it. It’s not for everyone.
But it’s for me. (I think I might have some ketchup and rice for lunch now! *swoon*)
Anyway.
Back to the amazing ketchup packet of love.
It opens so you can squeeze it onto your item of choice (a hotdog with diced onions, perhaps?) Watch as I demonstrate.
Don't look at my hideous nail, I need a manicure.
OR (and this is where it gets good):
YOU CAN OPEN IT UP FOR DIPPING!
Demonstrating with frozen T-Rex nugget. No I didn't have 15 seconds to defrost it.
No more messy wrappers and having to squeeze it into a giant ketchup pile in your to-go box! And it’s also the size of two ketchup packets (I mean honestly who uses one anyway? And then you’re squeezing and you can’t get all of it out and then you have the empty ketchup packets all oozy and gooey getting stuck to things…)
Isn’t this the best thing EVER????
Anything that makes my life easier (or is ketchup related — and in this case, both) is blogworthy in my book.
I have only found these at Chick-Fil-A so far, but you better believe I am searching for them elsewhere! It’s the great hunt for ketchup packets on steroids of 2011! Hey restaurants, get this movement goin’! Mkay???
That is all.
Have a nice day.
Disclaimer: No dinosaurs were harmed in this demonstration. This was not in any way a sponsored post. I just love ketchup. The end.

I have to share your love for CFA’s ketchup packets. I haven’t seen them anywhere except at CFA, but I have a few packets in my fridge at work (just in case.) Love.
Well what do you know!!!!! I KNEW there were more of us out there!!!!! LOL!
i’m definitely a dipper! don’t understand the squeeze people. but i suppose it would be handy for a sandwich. i’m a ketchup/fry only kinda gal!
I thought these new packets CFA carries were the cutest when I first saw them! I don’t care for ketchup though.
I always grab a couple of extras when I’m at CFA! My grandkids love those things and they are so handy to have. Love me some ketchup!
I totally agree, we went to chick fil a last week, and I even brought some home, my hubby loved them too!!
2 things: 1-we don’t have chick-fil-a so I’m jealous. 2-that is totally blogworthy ketchup!
Whaaaa? No chick-fil-a????? i’ll have to send you a ketchup packet. it really is quite amazing. LMAO
It definitely is the little things in life that get us excited!!! We have Chick here so I will have to ask hubby to check it out as I am not really a fast food eater & no kids in the house..
I thought the exact same thing when I saw those. Well, maybe not the EXACT same thing, but I remember thinking “How stinkin’ cool is that?” The kids could care less.
And I’m ketchup on fries, burgers, and dogs only.
I TOTALLY ate somewhere (possibly Chic-fil-a if there’s one in Topeka, KS???) and they had these. I took a bunch so I could take some home for my boys LOL
Those are the BEST! I seriously love them. There’s a chain in the South called Whataburger, and they’ve had the bomb diggety dipping ketchup packs (although they don’t have the squeezy option) since before I was born. I covet them. I swipe them. They allow me to drive and eat french fries with ketchup (not that I ever eat french fries while driving, or ever eat french fries at all for that matter. Totally a thing of the past
).
Totally blogworthy!
Wow, who knew such marvels existed? I know you will consider me a wet blanket…but don’t overdo on the ketchup…it’s full of sugar!
HA! nope, not at all a wet blanket! I actually considered writing about the sugar part because you’re right! I do my ketchup in moderation, though, as much as I lurrrrve it. LOL
I. LOVE. THESE. And the only place I’ve seen ‘em is Chick-fil-A. Awesomeness, indeed.
Be very afraid of the squeeze Catsup containers that were on a sunny table. They CAN BE LETHAL, (at least to a yellow shirt). Heat and catsup do not go together.
when opening the snap lid to put on a slider the whole thing explodes…….Only funny to everyone else, but it does come out of a a yellow shirt with Oxyclean!
