Title: McDonalds Sugar Packets
Post by: oldfart on October 15, 2017, 08:44:58 AM

Trivia bit for today.

Somebody bought McDonalds coffee with cream and sugar packets.
The packets felt skinny and it took a lot to sweeten the coffee.
So I measured the packets.
I always assumed that one packet was 1 teaspoon or 4.2 grams.
Not even close.
One packet has less than 3.5 grams which is 0.83 teaspoons.

Now you know.

Despite the old packaging, most cherry pies had only 2 to 3 cherries inside.

McNuggets sauces also shrunk.

Sugar packets are good for hiccups. Salt packets are good for cramps.

When I was a kid Taco Bell sauce packets were bigger, and they also used to have small lemon juice packets.
