Okay '~ why do they call them sour cream containers?

I asked the same question before. do you remember the sour cream containers you could get at Wendy's? They were shaped like that. I was told that is how they got their name.

Schwan's Chicken Faijita's still have the sour cream that way. They are neat, but what do you all use them for?? Just trying to get ideas in case I can sign up next month :)

Okay ~ now I have to ask ~ What's a Schwans? I know they sponsor Kenny Schrader's car, but have no clue what they are.

And I've never seen a container like that. Maybe it's just where I'm from or the fact that I don't eat at Wendy's.

Schwans is a company that delivers frozen foods. Well known for their icecream but also have pizzas, pies, dinner entrees as well. Pricey to me but their icecream is really good. Guess you order from their catalog.
When I was in highschool(many moons ago, mind you) we had sour cream that came in these types of containers. I just assumed that is how they got their name.

I don't order from them much, mainly just Quick Taters cause the kids I babysit for LOVE them and they bake faster than french fries. But on occassion I do buy something for a "treat" from them, just never Ice Cream. We have a mom and pop ice cream shop in town that makes awesome ice cream and in summer I make my own.

I remember those from hot lunch at school too! That's how I thought they got named....I've never had sourcream from Wendy's!

I consider the sour cream container a staple at my workshops! I always use it to demo the wheel, and then I tie a cute tag on it I make it a make and take because it is so easy! I tell my customers they can use them for great party favors, fill them with candy, hang them from a "tree branch" at a Christmas party, the list goes on and on! Anyway, I think they are great!
