Back when i actually worked for a living, and routinely ate lunch from a
"Chinese to go" place i would, often as not, get an order of plain
steamed rice and one of their meats, dry fried pork or their nice
breaded shrimp or their ginger chicken and always put the packet of soy
sauce over the rice and then mix that up with the meat.

Im very fond of the CHinese hot mustard and have been know to hoard the
small packets, going so far as to take them out of the trash when they
have been thrown away by other co workers and hoarding a small stash at
home

Now i don't work, have more time at home and make my own "Chinese" spicy
hot mustard.
