[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 401183, member: 1233"] Consider using foil or wax paper to wrap around the taco the help keep things extra tidy as they eat. You can get precut wax paper or foil at Sams or cut your own. You could also probably get a handful of the wax paper from the self serve donut/pastry section of the grocery. Often if I need just a handful of something like that I will ask a manager if I could buy say 30 sheets from the box out by the donuts. Or once the stores here were out of straws for some unknown reason - I went to 3 groceries and none had them, so I stopped at McDonald's for a coffee and asked the mgr if I could buy 30 straws. He laughed and said usually people take whatever they want. I said I tried to buy them but the stores (named them) were out. The bonus of asking for that is that the manager will remember you as the nice, polite, kooky lady who asked for something other people just take. Then if you have a problem he is far more likely to go above and beyond to help you and if you ever need a donation he will be far more willing to give you whatever. FYI if the PTA or whomever ever needs a prize for each kid most fast food places have leftovers of past promotions in storage and are quite likely to donate them to you.
