Engineer: The glass is too big.
Mechanic: The glass isn’t broken.
I don’t understand the line through optimist.
It’s because it’s a screenshot taken on a broken phone.
Amazing.
Optimist: the glass is half full
Pessimist: the glass is half empty
realist: is this piss?All water is filtered piss in some quantity, right?
The glass is full: half of it is air.
Qualitäts michmich!
I recently saw a local brand of chips with the tagline “less air, more chips”, and hey, there it is, capitalism at work. Competition happening.
Then I remembered that PepsiCo owns Frito-Lay and they are a huge conglomerate, so it doesn’t matter what it says on the bag. And hey, there it is, capitalism also.
Ok but why don’t all chip bags have zip seals built into the bag?
Cost
There’s a practical reason chips bags are mostly air tho.
Yes but it’s far more than necessary to protect the chips. Bag sizes are inflated for the psychology not the practicality
False. Bag sizes are relative to the amount of nitrogen needed to keep the chips from crushing.
-
The nitrogen is to keep them from going stale in oxygen. The amount of nitrogen across various chip manufacturers ranges from 19% gas all the way to 59%. That discrepancy range is where the psychology comes into play.
-
The gas is partially pack fill to keep them from getting crushed, obviously. My whole point was that it is significantly more gas than necessary for pack fill.
Fact is if you make the package look bigger, people think there’s more. There’s a reason we have laws about unnecessary slack fill. Nice try though, Dwight
Various studies have went into this type of packaging. The amount of gas used is optimal to ensure freshness and keep the chips from crumbling.
