Default Re: OT: I Remember When

well then, now that thats all square:

I remember when you could get a bag of chips (or other salty snacks) and it would actually contain the product as advertised. These days, you pay a large sum of money for fancy packaging and pLastic canisters that are concave in the middle (so they hold less), are filled 60% with air, and the remaining 40% contains either air-puffed snacks or ones that are circular or otherwise hollow in the center so that they fill a spacious volume with a small ammount of 'edible' material.

the same applies to those bic pen-erasers with the hole down the center of them.
