Those Nabisco bastards.
I buy some of those Chewy Chips Ahoy! cookies and I'm all, "Oh, I love these." Then I try to open it and pull it out but it won't. I see that one of the folds in the foil bag has not opened. I do not want to pull to hard and rip the bag open. I with quickly make them hard. After hours of careful pulling I succesfully opened the bag.
But that wasn't the end.
After barely putting the plastic tray back in the bag I had to face sealing it. They got rid of the simple 'tie it back with the white, bendy thing' and replaced it with the hard 'curl it back up two times and tape it with a crappy strip of tape'. Curling it up is hard and keeping it there is harder as you reach for the tape hanging off the side of the table. But that thing is a magnet for dust. In the ten seconds that it has hung there it has lost most of its stickyness. I would get another piece of tape but that feels like cheating. But if you perservere you can beat those Nabisco bastards at their own game.
