My Packaging Pet Peeve: Half Filled Potato Chip Bags
I feel the need to sound off about something that I find particularly annoying: snack packaging. It came to a head the other day when shopping for a picnic, I broke down and bought a bag of potato chips. It is extremely rare that I buy chips so I became extra annoyed when I opened the bag at a party only to find the package not even half full. Are you serious?!!
I felt completely hoodwinked and angry as a result. Have companies become so ridiculously greedy that they have resorted to such a visual trick? Apparently the answer is "yes". The problem is, most snack companies have adopted this deceptive practice of skimping big time on the product inside the big bag. I say to them, you've lost my business. I'm only going to buy from companies who know how to fill the darn bag.
