    If you have tomato sauce, mix 3:1 tomato sauce and sugar, then about 1oz white vinegar per cup of tomato sauce, salt to taste and if you wanna get fancy add a tbsp of granulated garlic and a tsp of onion powder.

    Once did a kilo of butter from room temp 5 gram packets. I feel you brother

    Maybe your manager is tired of you leaving your beverages literally on your prep station and is using ketchup to punish you

    Hey no coke on the prep tables, and no drinks either.

    Reminds me of the time we ran out of cocktail sauce and resources on Sunday brunch for 300; had 3 dishwashers rip into ketchup packets on the fly

    The ONLY reason I would consider doing this is when they’re about to expire.

    If not just make ketchup yourself or send whoever’s responsible to the store.

    that’s insane, at that point send someone to the shop or just not offer ketchup

    Did this with honey yesterday. It was “only” 3 cups worth but took forever.

    Ohhhh that’s triggering.

    I was tasked with making pico for 200 by a “chef” who would stock last-minute from local warehouses. On this day, he could only find cherry tomatoes.

    So, “pico for 200 with cherry tomatoes (properly de-seeded)” it was.

    I was done with that job in 2 weeks.

    Is it not possible to run to the store real quick?

  14. just say “screw this” and walk to the ketchup store

    If you are ever forced to do stupid shit like this you make it take as long as possible to waste the labor and make it out cost the manager just going to get a damn bottle of ketchup.

  16. I’m reminded of my stepfather working at Wendy’s and telling a coworker that the “ketchup packets” isthe ketchup that goes into the self-serve station.

    I had to do this the other day to get 2 cups of sugar from sugar packets lol

  18. The_Brother_Darkness

    Ahh yes, had to do this many times either due to the 4lb bag ending up all over the place or just not getting ordered
