If youâve ever worked in an office, you know the kitchen fridge is a place of mystery, temptation, and unspoken rules. Someone always leaves behind a salad dressing, a forgotten yogurt, or in this case, an unlabeled bottle of almond milk.
Eddie recently admitted heâs been using a bottle of almond milk from the work fridge. It wasnât labeled, so he assumed it was fair game: community almond milk, if you will. But now that itâs almost empty, guilt is setting in. Should he buy more to replace it? Amy and Bobby say yes, if youâve used a lot of it, you should definitely replace it. But Eddie argues that no one else was using it, so maybe itâs his now. Lunchbox, on the other hand, says itâs absolutely community property. His rule? If itâs in a container or Tupperware, thatâs someoneâs personal food. But if itâs a bottle, condiment, or ice cream, itâs up for grabs. Amy even admitted sheâs been known to dabble with condiments in the work fridge too.
That sparked another question: if almond milk is being used for coffee, does that make it a condiment? And if itâs a condiment⌠does that make it community? Bobby came up with a solution, Eddie should buy two bottles. One to replace the mystery almond milk, and one for himself going forward. Problem solved.
Of course, it turns out thereâs actually a community fridge in the office, one specifically meant for shared items. But Eddie didnât take it from there. Which means, yep, heâs definitely been sipping on someone elseâs almond milk. And while they were on the topic of condiments, things took another turn. Bobby and Lunchbox agreed that mayo is the worst condiment ever, while Amy and Eddie both cast their votes for mustard.
So, what have we learned here? Label your food, respect the fridge, and maybe think twice before claiming that âcommunityâ bottle of almond milk as your own.
