Don’t judge my dinner lol. It was a long day and I wanted something quick and easy. Defrosted the chops, got them ready to coat, and, what’s this? No bags? Surely this must be a manufacturing anomaly.
Nope. I go back into the pantry and grab the newer box, open it, and…also no bags.
Had to waste one of the good, gallon-size Ziplocs for this.
How many fractions of a penny did they save (and not pass on to me) by not including the shake bags? Ugh!
The actual seasoning crumbs are still sealed in a bag (for now? lol). It just doesn’t come with the “shake” bags you pour that into in order to coat the food.
I’m guessing those seasoning crumbs are a pretty standard mixture, one that is easily googled, and can be bought for pennies compared to that bag. Some olive oil, that seasoning, and a bug bowl and you could have weeks of it ready to go
Dude, just use a bowl. Like, I get it, fuck corporations and all that. But this seems a little petty to get upset over when my groceries are $150 a week and beef is $10 a pound. Honestly, we shouldn’t even be eating this processed garbage anyway.
It’s perfect content for this sub because it’s so minor.
That’s why we’re in mildly infuriating… It’s an annoyance, but not the end of the world.
2 problems with a mixing bowl, its not as easy and its more work to clean. These where a go to for me for quick easy, and cleanup meals for the family.
the bag had little chance for mess, the bowl is more cleanup and higher chance for mess, maybe its not a “huge” thing but its not nothing and breaks the convenience of them.
Put the porkchops or chicken [$5/lbs] in the bag with the seasoning crumbs [$1] shake, put in air fryer, microwave a some veggies[$1.25] serve on paper plates and I had a low cost, quick, no clean up meal for my family.
Having to use something else adds cost, in money, time or energy, all of which I have nowhere enough of
It’s almost like the issue is… Mildly Infuriating?
I wouldn’t say infuriating at all though. I’d save this content for a community called “Almost Inconvenience”.
I’ll admit, the “mildly” is doing some heavy lifting!
