    They keep a record of complaints as part of their CAPA. Any food related issues should always be reported, helps quality dept.s push for more funding.

      And then the quality department uses those complaint printouts to level their wobbly tables in the cafeteria.

        Because the reports go unheeded by management until it costs them money, at which point the quality department get their arses kicked for not fixing the problem that management ignored.

        Quality hasn’t printed out complaint reports since the 90s in most places. But, yeah about the same impact by the end of the day…or quarter.

    You may be interested to know that these kinds of paper adhesives are usually intentionally designed so that the substrate (paper) tears before the adhesive does. This is meant to ensure robust packing and to give proof that the package has not been tampered with. Couple this with ever thinner and shittier substrates, and, well…

      Ugh. I believe them already. It’s sealed for my protection. I get it. It says so nearly 100 times. I don’t check the seals for syringe marks first either, or the factory’s latest cleanroom maintenance logs. Just let me in, I already paid the extortionate entry fee.

      Seriously though, I wouldn’t mind so much if they always were just paper I could poke a finger through at the end. Sometimes there’s another super stretchy thick plastic layer under that which resists everything but blades. I don’t want to keep a knife in my bathroom, but I’m getting to the point where I’ve thought about it.

      Try getting arthritis meds in a child proof container! Almost impossible to open even if your hands do work properly. Repeatedly ask to put in normal screw cap bottles but they never listen.

      The irony of that being true for my ADHD medication bottle is not at all lost on me. It’s like a tiny extra “fuck you”.

        Ugh, this is my migraine medication. I have to open the little blister packs in advance because they’re so hard to open that I often just can’t do it if I have a migraine…when I need the medication.

    The glues work fine, it’s the paper/cardboard that failed because the glue was stronger.

    It’s the worst when it happens to boxes because instead of collapsing a box proper you have to tear it to fucking pieces, THANKS OBAMA.

    What we need to talk about are the built-in ziplock style closers on plastic bags that are everywhere now. Even makers of premium foods can’t seem to get this right. I can only think of one product where the closer is an improvement on having nothing.

    Boar’s Head Deli meat. I guess the guys who sell spam for the price of a good steak can spare the expense.
