About the collection:

My name is Chris Harne.  I began collecting condiment packets in November of 2003.  Initially the purpose of the collection was a more practical one.  I came to the conclusion that ketchup was no longer a reasonable thing to spend money on.  A handful of packets here and there would do just fine.  I began to pick up other condiments as well.  I stopped at a variety of locations in order to gather new types of condiments.  It was around this time that I discovered how many different condiment packets existed.  A collector by nature, the only logical thing for me to do was attempt to get every different packet design I possibly could. 

I carefully remove the contents of my packets by slicing open the back along the bottom seam with a sharp blade.  I rinse the inside of the packets thoroughly to ensure all traces of sauce are expelled.  I then wait until the packets are completely dry before I place them in baseball card cases to preserve them cleanly and safely for many generations. 

My collection has grown quickly since its inception largely due to generous packet donations from my family and friends.  If you think you have a packet that I do not, then please consider sending it to me.  For more information, and a list of three reasons why you should donate a packet, you can visit the packet submissions page.
