Anyone else have this problem every single time?

  1. Yep, happens 99% of the time. On par with trying to pierce a capri-sun with a paper staw.
    Our ancestors would be proud of how we’ve progressed.

  2. And just how do you expect the C-levels and majority shareholders to cover the rising cost of fuel for their yachts and private jets if they’re paying €0.01/100m2 more for stronger film and/or €0.01 per litre more for better glue?

  3. Nothing more annoying than the “easy peel” package that refuses to budge or just breaks, snaps or tears in some manner. Sliced meat packaging particularly bad in this regard.

  4. Ah yes, your pain is also my pain. It doesn’t happen all the time, but when it does – I have to cut around the tray. And it’s never quite as easy as that. It always turns into a protracted mess of an operation. Catastrophic.

  5. Fit foods….

    Step one : puncture hole in corner of tray (works best in single tray)

    Step two : turn fork to a 90 degree angle and run around perimeter (tearing plastic)

    Step three : remove remainder of plastic,make sure to scald your hand from the steam

    Step four : shout “FUCKING HELL THATS HOT” to any passersby

    Step five : enjoy

    Works every time,80% of the time…

    🙃🙃

  6. Just simply place a claymore mine some where near your house (not too near). Throw the package towards the explosive.
    Let it rest for approximately 5 mins and then eat whatever you can find.

    Delicious every time.

  7. Yes!!! On pretty much everything that has a film like this (also milk cartons with the ring pull and stickers). It’s in my top 3 pet peeves.

  8. Aldi stuffing in foil tray is worst ,you cant put it in the oven until you get all the plastic off ,otherwise your stuffing will taste like plastic

  9. From the oven the plastic comes off quite easy, but I can feel your frustration. Rasher packets are another nightmare, and why is the nearest rasher always at the bottom of the pack?

  10. This image reminds me of a quote from Judge Dredd. The original with Sly.

    “Eat recycled food. It’s good for the environment, and ok for you.”

  11. The worst thing is they have *ALWAYS* been like this. Been eating these since 2019 when they were only sold in DMC butchers and they still haven’t bothered to fix it. Have a knife beside my microwave specifically for it now lol

  12. For fear of sounding a nerd. The pack has been sealed wrong. It should be enough to stick but not so much as to make the film brittle. Full disclosure. I worked in the food prep industry many moons ago. Boring or what?

  13. It’s a fit meal.

    Jokes in you if you think it’s the food. It’s the aerobics you had to do to open the bastard
