TV, movies, web media--this thread is the home for any Joss projects that don't already have their own threads, such as Dr. Horrible.
You have to wonder how prevalent that was during and after the war. My grandmother used to take plastic baggies to restaurants to take stuff home in and we're just "ask for a to go box, grandma!"
My great-grandmother used to do this at the all you can eat restaurant that didn't allow you to take leftovers home.
My grandmother used to take all the crackers and rolls and salt when we went out to restaurants. So embarrassing. I think everyone who lived through the Depression came out of it with permanent food anxiety.
My grandmother had a glass bowl in her living room filled with all the matchbooks she had taken from various restaurants and she kept all the little shampoos and such from hotels on display in the bathroom.

One of our treasured family heirlooms is a piece of silverware from the hotel where my great grandfather was a bookkeeper.
Is Starbucks honey real honey? I am always suspicious of honey packets.
From my quick bit of research, it seems that Starbucks honey is indeed real honey, sourced from British Columbia and not ultrafiltered.

That's the thing you're suspicious of?

Research to the rescue!
