Imagine the smell by the time it got here.

I can buy the empty boxes here, but nobody serves the food in them.

This is what my Chinese take out comes in. As sson as I get in the car I poke holes in the lids so the food doesn't get soggy by the time I get home.

The boxes are for dry things like wings or spring/egg rolls only.

Canada uses those take out containers I guess, same here.

Didn't you just have a huge steak dinner? Are you still hungry for Chinese?

I was getting a craving for some deep fried sticky rice dumplings.
I settled for a handful of frosted flakes.

Most places here only put rice or rice combos in them here. They put their main dishes in some pretty nice topper ware that I save

Only way we get those little boxes around here is if you just order rice.

That's probably because we see them on lots of shows on TV. I feel a little left out too.....no Chinese food boxes...
