And Now This From the Saucy Idiots With Spare Time Dept.
MARION, Ind. (AP) — Ten to 15 people wearing masks left six 40-gallon trash bags full of taco sauce packets at a Taco Bell restaurant in what police described as a prank.
A note attached to the bags said the group had been accumulating them for the past three years, storing them in the trunk of a car, authorities said.
Police have suspended their investigation into the Tuesday night prank in the city about 50 miles northeast of Indianapolis without any arrests, said Marion Deputy Police Chief Cliff Sessoms.
"From everything we've got here, there doesn't appear that there has been any crime committed," he said. "It looks more like a prank than it does anything else, but not a very funny one because you've got that number of people coming in there with their faces covered up."
A spokesman for Taco Bell said he's never heard of people returning so many unused packets of sauce.
"I've heard a lot of people accumulate sauce packets in their glove compartments. We know people keep things and it's a pretty common phenomenon, but to have that many, I've never heard of that," said spokesman Rob Poetsch.
He said the packets would not be used, for safety reasons.

Welcome to the new era of paranoia in this country. Funny though.
What's so paranoid about being afraid of taco sauce packets? They could be made into a bomb for heavens sake!

I hope the amount of packets they have isn't correlated to the amount of food they ate. If it is, thats just disgusting.

Nah, my dad would routinely go to Taco Bell stores and ask for their fire sauce, and they would gladly give him the whole "bin," about enough to fill 2/3 of a plastic grocery bag. We used it at home for a number of dishes, he just preferred that sauce.
its good!
