Ketchup packets

Tonight I made meatloaf and I created a glaze out of ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, and balsamic vinegar. We are out of ketchup, but we have a little stock of ketchup packets from previous takeout meals.

On the one hand, I am using up ketchup that would otherwise go to waste, but on the other hand, I do have to throw away the empty packets. But at least they are empty instead of full. In the future, I will have to make a point to request no condiments in any takeout orders.
