Whenever you order takeout, you get extra ketchup, soy sauce, and salad dressing packets. They usually get thrown into a random drawer and forgotten until they expire. Here is how to keep them visible and usable.
■ The Clothespin Hanging Basket
Take a small plastic basket and clip a few wooden clothespins or binder clips around the rim.
■ Group by Expiration and Type
Hang the small sauce packets from the clips inside the basket, or sort them into the basket by category. Place this basket at eye-level in your refrigerator or pantry. Seeing them clearly reminds you to use them first before opening new bottles.
■ Conclusion
Stop wasting free food. Organize your takeout sauce packets with simple clips so you can use them up easily.
