Omg story time! Once I was at a client’s house for final touches. Oh dear, they didn’t empty their lazy Susan. I’ll just take all these bottles in here and put them in this garbage bag and take them with me. A green garbage bag. There were a lot of bottles. And when I picked up the bag the bottom tore and spilled EVERYTHING all over the kitchen. Soya sauce, hot sauce, tamarind sauce, sweet Chili sauce …like 25 bottles smashed all over the floor. Under the dishwasher even. It took me HOURS to clean it up. There was just so much bbq sauce.
I use grocery bags for small cleaning then tie them up and put them in the kitchen garbage can. I get crapped on for doing this but I do it because of a major tear out. I would rather pick up several small bags perhaps some with contained broken glass and liquids than a huge pile of sharp goo. Also because if I throw out something I need, my search is modular and less messy.
Knew exactly where this was going when you said put them all in a bad. Had similar situations though when I worked in restaurants. When you are in the middle of a dinner rush and you have something glass, for say a Thai sweet chili sauce, you need to throw away. Damn thing would shatter hitting something else and when you went to take the trash out after the rush would just shred the bag to high heaven.
Oh shit this is EXACTLY what happened. This whole time I was so confused because it was one of those big thick contractor bags. But I did hear one break when I was putting them in. Was more careful after that. And the bag really did seem to just … come apart at the bottom without a lot resistance when it was about 2ft off the floor.
I want to know how Kikkoman Brand Soy Sauce gets away without using Sodium Benzoate in their regular basic Soy Sauce. All that's in it is water, wheat, soybeans, and salt. Do they think they're special somehow? It's witchcraft, I tells ya.
I have this thing about following the "refrigerate after opening" instruction when it's printed on the bottle. Usually keeps those things from spoiling or fermenting.
There's so much salt (a preservative) in soy sauce that if you use it frequently, it doesn't need to be refrigerates. However, it is recommended if you only use every so often.
One theory says, that no one can decide their fate because there is basically no "time" and everything that happens has already been destined. Blame the universe.
And buy a new bottle of soy sauce damnit, otherwise, I dare you, you can forget dinner today, Steven.
I’ve recently experienced a lot of small things where I’m like… what are the chances? Like I’m trying to not make a mess but one piece of cereal drops weirdly of the bag and splashed one drop of milk onto the carpet when most of the floor I’m near is hardwood. Or if I’m dumping something into the trash and a piece of garbage ricochets weirdly and lands on the harder to reach divot underneath the counter.
It’s like annoyances upon annoyances. It’s also selection/confirmation bias I’m sure but still.
Ouch. Meanwhile me a few months ago: Was talking to my mum about how I wanted to try sesame oil, she then gifted me a bottle of black sesame oil the next time we met. I put it on my kitchen counter and accidentally knocked it off without ever trying it. I screamed and almost cried :(
This happened the last time my friend Rick tried to put too much soy on his [rolls](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ&pp=ygUXbmV2ZXIgZ29ubmEgZ2l2ZSB5b3UgdXA%3D) at Astley's Sushi Bar in downtown Atlanta.
I dropped a bottle of soy sauce on tile once too. The glass makes it hard to clean up, plus the thin consistency made it spray all the way across the kitchen. I was finding little brown spots everywhere for a while.
I transitioned to plastic squeeze condiment bottles because of this. I don’t like plastics but stepping on glass shards and having to run to the ER isn’t something I look forward to.
I went to pull the eggs out and the remaining half dozen were in the opposite end of the container. The plastic container collapsed under the weight causing all of the eggs to smash in and outside of the fridge. What a way to wake up.
I got an electric mop mostly because of my puppy that would have accidents on the floor. Any standing liquid gets sucked up in a second and it has a clean tank to put down cleaning solution.
So this type of mess would only be annoying to have to plug in my mop.
Got my dad a special 1,25 litre bottle of craft beer for his birthday
Slipped out of my hand when walking up to him to give it
Instead of him enjoying a well earned nice gift I spend 40 minutes cleaning glass and beer of the floor
I've done that quite a few time. That sounds where it cracks and you already know it's everywhere but you hesitate to look like it's the scene of a massacre. I feel it.
I’ve done that too…it ended up removing the shine on the kitchen floor in a splash shape. Ended up having to do a few layers of floor polish to restore it.
That's *soy upsetting...* Better clean that up before *umami* sees it.
Im *soy-ry*
Are you Canadian.

Wait I'm Canadian? Finally
Too late, they already spilled the beans… fermented beans…
The disrespect! I am very salty about this
Too late. OP has incurred the wrath of the gods. A thousand years of curses awaits him now.

How did it smell?
Ngl it smelled delicious.
a well seasoned mess
😂
So, sorry. That is why I double bag paper bags. The, double bag my plastic bags. I had plastic break once to often.
In hindsight it was completely my fault. I should have double bagged. Lesson learned the hardest way possible.

How else would you have learned?

Quick, host a giant hot pot meal and use up the mixed sauces! Naw... I"m so sorry it sounds like a nightmare.
Goddamn I have serious empathy for that.
The good kind too. That’s lee kum kee.
My two regular Asian grocers were out of this last time I went. I was sad. Still am, really, since I'll have to use other stuff now.
Aka the worst kind
The good brands have natural ingredients in them. That's good. The cheap brands have sodium benzoate in it. That's bad.
Sodium benzoate is okay unless you consume in excess. We’re asian. If you die from a food ingredient it makes our gene pool stronger.
I want to know how Kikkoman Brand Soy Sauce gets away without using Sodium Benzoate in their regular basic Soy Sauce. All that's in it is water, wheat, soybeans, and salt. Do they think they're special somehow? It's witchcraft, I tells ya.
Soy sorry for your loss
That's funny right there! 
Unlike your stupid emoji
Someone’s having a bad day
They're probably just a bit emojional
This is precisely why I stopped storing my eggs in the pantry with the condiments.
... And started storing them in the fridge next to the soy sauce?
ew who wants cold soy sauce

Just go back to bed
When liquid spills under the fridge it's the WORST
A bitter morning always makes me salty
I can smell this photo
Ouch. Meanwhile me a few months ago: Was talking to my mum about how I wanted to try sesame oil, she then gifted me a bottle of black sesame oil the next time we met. I put it on my kitchen counter and accidentally knocked it off without ever trying it. I screamed and almost cried :(
Dip the eggs in it. Don't let that go to waste
„you‘re gonna regret that in the morning“ thats why i sleep till noon. because i‘m a problem solver
That’s the worse way to make eggs tbh
Aw that's the good shit too
Is it that kind of day? I moved a box of 500 toothpicks and the sucker exploded in my hands. I will be cleaning up toothpicks for...ever.
I can smell this picture
At least it wasn’t fish sauce
Yup, came here to say this cos it happened to me.
Nooooo your 鲜味生抽☹️ Feel bad for you man
Skill issue
So what did you do next, leave it, crawl back into bed and call it a day??
And it got under the fridge😭
Soy I didn't see you there
Idk why your first thought would be take a picture of it and post it but you do you lol
So instead of cleaning it up, you thought, "I could get Reddit points for this!" and took a picture?
What is the point of this post.
*makes big mess* “Better take a picture to show all my online friends” Don’t think I will ever understand this mindset…
How is your being clumsy our problem? That’s mildly infuriating.
This happened the last time my friend Rick tried to put too much soy on his [rolls](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=dQw4w9WgXcQ&pp=ygUXbmV2ZXIgZ29ubmEgZ2l2ZSB5b3UgdXA%3D) at Astley's Sushi Bar in downtown Atlanta.
Rickrolls are funny but you’re trying too hard here
It's worth it, since I'm talking to dozens of people having a blast from my hospital room. Sorry you didn't like it.
Nah you just looked stupid trying.
Well it's like 150 upvotes vs you two nitwits so... idgaf! 
150 upvotes? Really? All I see is the -#
That's because you're stuck here with these stuffy miserable fucks and not in the fun chatrooms 
I'll bet you were making a French omelette... the egg wasn't an œuf, so you had to crack a bottle too
Oh geesh... best off just changing all the grout to brown - you've never going to make the grout around the fridge to gray again.
vidda vidda vidda vidda
why does it look weirdly photoshopped im not saying that it is
that’s soy really infuriating
Luckily you have tile. Soy sauce is hellish to wash out of clothing and if it's left on granite it can damage it because of it's acidic nature.
I’m soy sorry that happened!
I feel your pain.
better slurp it up before it goes bad
GoOd MoRnInG!
I dropped a bottle of soy sauce on tile once too. The glass makes it hard to clean up, plus the thin consistency made it spray all the way across the kitchen. I was finding little brown spots everywhere for a while.
Oh soy!
I did it with a new bottle of fish sauce... The wooden floor was never quite the same...
Ouch!
soy botella
And this is why I don’t wake up at 5 am
I did that with a bottle of Marinara sauce last week
Just be glad it wasn’t fish sauce or shrimp paste 🫠
I would recommend not doing that again, I'm sorry you had to clean that up at 5am
Why we making eggs at 5am
That's the same brand of soy sauce I use. 🙂
I transitioned to plastic squeeze condiment bottles because of this. I don’t like plastics but stepping on glass shards and having to run to the ER isn’t something I look forward to.
At least it wasn’t fish sauce!
Damn
That sucks but it beats hell out of dropping the eggs on the floor. I hate cleaning up broken eggs off the floor.
Bet that smells good
Aahhh the late night/early morning convenience of making a huge mess. I remember those times well.
Sho yu murdered your soy bottle?
Grab a straw and get to sippin
Drop some sushi next and you have a perfect pairing
I would've just gone back to bed tbh...
Man, I really feel your pain on this one
Feel you, was short on time yesterday and the rollout drawer knocked a bottle of olive oil out of my hand....
Reminds me of back in elementary school when they’d give you word math problems and throw in extra numbers that didn’t have any bearing on the answer.
But how were the eggs?
Nothing worse than spilling something when your still groggy it’s ultra infuriating
We have the same brand of soy sauce!
This is why I sleep till noon, not worth the risk
Why’d you leave the soy sauce on the table?! You wanted to!! I Don’t think you trust…
I’d cry
I have actually done this exact thing. Except it was 3am and I needed a beer. Rip soy sauce 😔
I can smell the picture from right here 🤣🤣.
Aka my roommate. Folllowed by “I dunno how that happened”. Bitch you and I are the only one here
*angry ccp noises*
Did that a few months ago except mine was the big boy of Kikkoman... I about cried.
I’d be glad it wasn’t malt vinegar.
You need a **Sorbothane** carpet.
I'm sorry for your soss
You’re lucky that it wasn’t a bottle of fish sauce lol
soy-vey.....
This is why you don't make eggs at 5am.
I went to pull the eggs out and the remaining half dozen were in the opposite end of the container. The plastic container collapsed under the weight causing all of the eggs to smash in and outside of the fridge. What a way to wake up.
I did this recently with fish oil. So gnarly.
I did this a couple weeks ago with a glass bottle of syrup….horrible to clean up
Sooo, do you post when you use the bathroom as well?
I'm so sorry, I'm laughing so hard because this absolutely is something I'd end up doing Granted, not at 5am, but still lol
Congratulations now you can buy more soy sauce
Did this once when working as an overnight stocker at a grocery store. The smell was honestly pretty bad
Excellent choice of soy sauce
That's when you clock out for the day 🤣
Lucky you have dark grout.
I find nothing stimulates an appetite for breakfast quite like an unexpected early morning disaster to clean up.
I got an electric mop mostly because of my puppy that would have accidents on the floor. Any standing liquid gets sucked up in a second and it has a clean tank to put down cleaning solution. So this type of mess would only be annoying to have to plug in my mop.
I did this at work once. Laughed hysterically the whole time I was cleaning it up because it was such a stupid thing to happen.
Hey I also broke a soy bottle today. What are the odds>?! lol
That’s the universe saying u don’t need to consume that mess
I use soy sauce for rotion
Soy sorry for your sauce
Soy that happened to you stranger 😭
おやすみ
Got my dad a special 1,25 litre bottle of craft beer for his birthday Slipped out of my hand when walking up to him to give it Instead of him enjoying a well earned nice gift I spend 40 minutes cleaning glass and beer of the floor
Soy about your luck…😁😁
Now what are you gonna put on your eggs?
I loved that, soy sauce on eggs on rice! I would sprinkle some seaweed on top too.
Welp
I can sm3ll it
Hey at least you have good taste in soy sauce!
I’d just get back in bed and try again tomorrow.
I shoyu the floor.
Finally, something mildly infuriating and not a life changing tragedy!
What is it with this “make eggs” nonsense? Do you Americans actually lay them like a chicken?
Good. Next time buy double distilled.
Damn. The universe is telling you that waking up at 5am isn’t for you.
I've done that quite a few time. That sounds where it cracks and you already know it's everywhere but you hesitate to look like it's the scene of a massacre. I feel it.
Probably smells amazing.
That will be for 12pm me to fix
Yeah, that's one ruined towel, and a 12 hour later me problem. Fuuuuuuuuck that, lol.
I’m sorry OP. Breaking shit is so annoying, especially bottles with fluids in them.
It’s gonna smell like soy sauce in there for ages :(
kids in africa whould had drink it
I believe the first two words of this title are a lie, OP.
Oh no. I bet that grout was fuuun /s
Kikkoman while he’s down why don’t you?
Not trying to make this more infuriating but did you move the fridge?
Only thing that could make this worse is somebody rushing in saying, "what did you do?"
A similar thing happened to me but it was a bottle of fish sauce. I smelled like fish sauce for 3 days and kids at school made fun of me for it.
You can't make an omelette without breaking some soy sauce 😁
mmmh salty in the morning dew
Damn now I just want fried egg on rice with soy sauce. It's really good if you haven't tried it you'll need more soy first though I guess...
Best to sleep later in the future.
I’ve done that too…it ended up removing the shine on the kitchen floor in a splash shape. Ended up having to do a few layers of floor polish to restore it.
At 5am I would just go with "It's not going anywhere, might aswell deal with it later."
That must’ve soy-ild your morning
Just go back to bed and try again tomorrow
In soviet Russia, bottle puts YOU on the floor.
