Let me guess- you have one very dirty shirt covered in vinegar? -FFox ------------------ "A christian, an anarchist-slash-prostitute, figures out the true meaning of freedom. Not freedom like America, freedom like a shopping cart." Posted by DuSTman on Aug. 18 2000,05:45
Sachets. They suck.Why must all restaurants feel the need to provide all the little sachets of everything.. It was bad enough with sachets of salt, and that horrible way that once you applied the small amount of salt you actually wanted the only available option is to put down the sachet, whereupon the table will become covered in those little white granules.. But vinegar? That's taking the piss. Sachets should not be used on anything that runny. I defy anyone to be able to open a sachet of vinegar without covering an impressive radius of the table and soaking assorted packaging. vinegar is a strong taste, you apply it lightly, but with a sachet it's nigh on impossible to end up with anything other than one f*** strong vinegared chip and a pile of unaffected candidates. If you actually manage not to put the entire sachet on one damn pea you may wish to not use the entire thing. Then what are you supposed to do? The only thing you can do from then on to avoid creating a mess is to drink the remainder and spend the next hour coughing. Sachets of vinegar are a terrible idea. Case for the prosecution rests.

Something like that, yes.

It could be worse, it could have been the mustard one.------------------ Posted by starduck on Aug. 19 2000,16:43
one time I was on a plane and they gave me a sachet of salad dressing...for my salad. And I open it and it squirts all over me!damn! Posted by Firefox on Aug. 19 2000,21:41
Yeah, actually I have to agree that sachets with liquids in them always lead to tragedy. Stuff like mustard and ketchup is usually pretty good because it's more viscous, and doesn't squirt quite as much. Vinegar, liquid salad dressings, etc. squirt like crazy.This is a bizzare thread if I've ever seen one. But then again I'm posting to it, so what does that tell you. -FFox ------------------ "A christian, an anarchist-slash-prostitute, figures out the true meaning of freedom.
