Trivial Gripe Of The Day

Dear Cereal Company (or Company Who Boxes Said Cereal):

Regarding the bag that goes inside the cereal box: can you PLEASE make a bag that doesn't require a flipping chainsaw to open?? Is this asking too much?

I try to gently open it, to no avail. I try to forcefully open it, to no avail. I'm now pulling with all my might and weight, one leg braced against the wall, when the whole thing shatters open. And does it open across the top seam? Of course not. It splits down both sides, still managing to stay sealed like concrete at both ends. So now, the little cereal that remains in the bag (the rest has exploded across my kitchen) still cannot be poured into a bowl. It half-comes out the bag and half-slides down into the box, between the bag and the box.

I hope you get the picture.


Thank you very much,
An irritated consumer
