Food packaging pet peeves...

[Puddles]

Why must a package of food contain fractional servings? Yesterday my asparagus can had 2.5 servings and the sardines 1.5 servings. Today the Soy Crisps have 3.5 servings. Almost nothing ever has just ONE SERVING! :mad:

you know the prepackaged plastic forks and spoons that come with naplins and sometimes salt and peppar. They are in plastic so they dont get dirty. So how do i know some minimum wage sweat shop worker did not just go potty and not wash thier hands before packing them ?

I think its better like that, than having a bunch of really small shit that is packaged individually. Kind of like bitsized candy, too much unwrapping. And you end up paying for the packaging anyway. I buy stuff big.

Oh, I'm all for buying in bulk but to have FRACTIONAL stuff...that's just stupid!

It's all about numbers. Whos to say how big a serving is. Especially to people like us who eat large ammounts.

Well, over the course of a few hours at work I did polish off the whole bag...they were BBQ and quite tastey.

Hell, I looked at a package of doughnuts and it said to only eat 4 but with my metabolism I ate 8.
