A Dad Says His Kids Got Sauce Packets While Trick-or-Treating

A father in Alameda, California says that his kids went trick-or-treating . . . and someone gave them SAUCE PACKETS instead of candy.

There was a wide variety:  Heinz ketchup, yellow mustard, BBQ, Taco Bell hot sauce, sriracha, honey, McDonald’s grape jam, soy sauce, and hoisin sauce.

He seemed to find it amusing.  He said, “Single serving sauce packets were ‘recycled’ as ‘treats.’  Let it not be said that Alameda peeps don’t have a great sense of humor.”

Someone joked that the sriracha was a score, since there’s been a shortage of that.  And another person said, “My son came home with a packet of Southwest Airlines pretzels.  Can’t complain when he still has eight pounds of candy.”

It’s unclear who was handing out the sauce packets.
