Anyone who has kids knows this.
You are strolling through the freezer aisle and the kids see them. You decide to bring a box of Farm Rich French Toast Sticks home. The kids can't wait...
You open the box, and you count. There are eleven sticks in the box. You try to even the count. Two kids? Each gets 5-1/2, or they get 5 and you get the pig-stick. Three? Four? Forget it. Other than the "baker's dozen" which is actually a bonus, this has to be the only company that intentionally sells in a quantity of a prime number.
WHO PACKS ELEVEN OF ANYTHING IN A BOX?
These people obviously do not have kids. If they did, they would understand that familial warfare at 7AM is NOT beneficial to parental sanity.
