Not only did Taco Bell give me way to many sauce packets as usual. I received them in individual little bags. Fucking environmental waste. Especially frustrating when I said No sauces. They never listen.

    It’s a waste for MOST people. Then there’s people like me. I don’t have uses for everything I get. They go into storage.

    Then one day, someone is like "Hey, remember MC Hammer? Ha! It would be funny if we could listen to his 1991 album right now.

    And then I’m like “be right back”.

    And then people are like “why do you HAVE this???”

    And I say “I was using it as a doorstop. I needed something I didn’t care about that would just end up in a landfill.”

      I keep collecting glass jars, but I am running out of places to put them. But can’t dare throw them out.

        I buy pesto sauce from Aldis. They come in little glass jars.

        I use them to portion out protein powder. So instead of 1 big plastic jug, I have about 50 little glass jars.

        Each one a single use that fits easily into my gym bag.

        For bigger ones, like pickle jars, you could fill it with candy, or pasta, or coins, or cereal.

        Stays fresher longer sealed in glass, than just in a plastic bag inside a box.
