Abstract

A condiment packet including an exterior fold region, wherein the packet is folded over on itself. The packet includes a quantity of a condiment confined within a single chamber. The packet includes a seal disposed on the exterior fold region. The seal includes a first mode, wherein the seal prevents the quantity of condiment from leaving the packet. The seal includes a second mode, wherein the seal permits the quantity of condiment to leave the packet.
