Favorite fast food condiment.

Post by Rockchucker »

Seems like you can get just about anything in a condiment package. My current favorite to take camping is these olive oil packets from sub way, one package is the perfect amount to add to noddles, cook fish, add a bit of much needed fat to just about any meal. They also have vinegar and lemon juice.

What's your favorite fast food condiment?

For on the trail I assume.
Pico... Great on most anything. Usually have to settle for Picante.
I've yet to see packets of Sriracha :tear:
I bet it will pop up in the list

Pico de gallo. Have yet to find it here in TX in little packets. Most joints have picante with pureed tomatoes. I'll post it if I can find it!

Carls Jr has salsa packets, to bad the flavor is subpar.

Sriracha Packets

I have taken these olive oil packets in past years.

I'm not sure I really have an over all favorite to bring since I don't consistently bring any one thing or another. I do remember McDonalds honey mustard being very good when I had some along the Tuolumne.

I've done from hot sauces of all types to honey to mayo and relish. Also have done green chili packets from 505 Chili. Those were a happy find in the John Muir Trail Ranch boxes one year.

Mayonnaise. I sometimes eat a packet like it were Gu. But if I could find a source for ranch dressing packets I'd go with that instead.

A Yosemite bum solo climbed El Cap one time eating only condiment packages pilfered from the deli. I know of someone who ate only power bars on a five day backpacking trip. I wonder if anyone has been out in the mountains for a while with only condiments?
