'Nerd' catalogs his Heinz sauce packet collection in binders and the internet's finding it weirdly hot

You may have seen people collecting stamps, books, or even vintage postcards, but have you ever heard of someone curating a "Heinz" sauce packet collection in binders? Sounds unusual, right? Well, wait until you meet Hudson—who goes by—@hudsonstuffy on TikTok. From classic ketchup to rare limited-edition flavors, he treats these tiny condiment treasures like prized possessions, carefully organizing them in a plastic binder.

With a wide grin, he proudly displayed what he referred to as his "sauce packet binder," flipping through the pages to showcase his extensive collection. As he revealed his binder, the overlay text read, "Everyone wants a nerd loser boy until I pull out the sauce packet binder." Adding to the fun, the man playfully shared in the caption, "Still searching for my white whale 'Malt Vinegar.'" Needless to say, his comprehensive binder highlighted his deep passion for collecting even the most unexpected items, turning something as ordinary as sauce packets into a hobby. 

Meanwhile, reacting to his video, @dilfcon2014 commented, "I have always loved looking at sauce packets, but I didn't even consider becoming an enthusiast." @chickennuggyx wrote, "Honestly, a sauce binder is one of the most green-flag and hottest things I have ever seen." @minttidepod added, "That’s amazing. I have never seen someone with a sauce packet binder. It’s an awesome sauce binder." @em_lame17 said, "But why is this so cute? Because you have a cute weird hobby and you want to show it to be. Oh my God! It's so cute!" @kim chimed in, "I would fall in love the second someone showed me this with a smile on their face." @celesteeee0520 expressed, "I love people and their niche hobbies and things, like yes, I want to help you find all the sauce packets in the world." 

@layz_chips_, who also loves collecting sauce packets, wrote: "Stop- I thought I was the only one who collected sauce packets, I literally get made fun of for it." @carlyisradical commented, "No because wait, I would be so interested in this and I would start my own collection with you." @i_eat_children444 shared, "I collect random quarters that I like. I’ve got one for almost every state. I’m working on it!" On the other hand, @maroon added, "I am not joking when I say that’s actually really cool."

In a similar story, Doug (@catsupwithdoug on TikTok)—who was fascinated with collecting baseball cards as a child—later discovered that he was actually "terrible" at it. "As a kid, apparently, I was terrible at collecting baseball cards," the man began, giving a glimpse into his book filled with the same Will Clark rookie cards. "Cause I didn't understand the concept of trying to collect them all or get a full team set or anything like that," Doug revealed.

Further, he flipped through the pages of his scrapbook, revealing each slot filled with identical 1986 Will Clark Topps rookie cards saying, "I thought you picked a favorite card and stuck with it." Interestingly, one of the cards on Doug's desk also had Will Clark's autograph, which he revealed he had received from the American baseball player before a Rangers game. Revealing more about his quirky obsession, he playfully shared, "If you've ever wondered who's hoarding all of the 1986 Topps Traded Will Clark Rookie Cards, it's me," in the caption.
