sauce packets

Single-serving flavor pouches

Sauce packets are the small, single-serving pouches of condiments—ketchup, mustard, soy sauce, hot sauce—distributed at fast food restaurants and takeout counters.

They accumulate in kitchen drawers and glove compartments: We have enough sauce packets to last a decade.

The term also covers similar packets of mayonnaise, relish, or salad dressing.
