McDonalds Sugar Packets

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.
What, Me Worry?

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

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.
