3. Remember when they came with a red twisty tie so that you could
close the package and they wouldn't get stale?

5. dont get me started on twist ties
its hard to tell which way to untwist them (after a broken jaw and having my jaw wried shut for a few weeks, included metal wire twisted together like a twist tie, the nurses came and removed the wires so i can open my mouth, even THEY had trouble figuring out which way they where twisted)

11. Plastic has taken over the world!
:yikes:

I blame Benjamin Braddock. :grr:

No, not a warm fuzzy nostalgia thread. A mini rant about the state of packaging in this environmentally FUCKED country.
