When out on an eatery adventure with the family picking up the evening’s meal at the local fast food place, it’s always nice to know the establishment you’re going to has disposable beverage carriers on hand, because passing around those drinks in a car full of kids is a quick way to make an unwanted mess. Keeping those drinks in a convenient beverage carrier until you get home is the best bet for avoiding those little disasters. Disposable beverage carriers are convenient from a consumer standpoint, but as a restaurateur or concession stand manager, they’re an essential part of your culinary kit. Keep a case next to your straws, lids, cups, and napkins.
