I’d outlaw sauce bottles which make getting it all out harder, especially the ones which don’t have the opening at the bottom and make it impossible to put the bottle with the opening facing downwards.

Potato chips are the one case where it’s valid. The air pumped into the bag protects the chips from being crushed in transit.
It’s amazing that people still don’t understand why there is air in chip bags.
Yeah, I mean, we all know it’s to keep the chips in suspended animation until the bag is opened and their lives concluded for snacks, right?
IT’s one thing when the bag is inflated to act as an air cushion around the chips. it’s another to make the bag twice as tall as it needs to be.
There’s also a reason for that too. The bag not only needs to be inflated with air to protect the chips, but it also has to have plenty of room for that air to expand and contract due to atmospheric pressure changes. For example, if you made the bag just big enough for the chips and enough air that when pushed or squished a bit it doesn’t cave in on the chips. And your manufacturing plant is at sea level. When those chip bags go on a truck and arrive at 8,000 feet in Colorado. All the bags would be popped because the air inside expanded far beyond the left over capacity of the bag, so POP!
Man, I feel like that used to be true–maybe. I feel like the bags are only 1/4 to 1/3 full now. And the chips are still mostly crushed. I feel ripped off even buying chips, so I’m trying to stop entirely. Win?
Huh TIL
