The Just juicy chicken fiasco

Post by firemonkey »

Maybe it's just me being quite dyspraxic or maybe because in certain ways I'm thick. Went to do some "Just juicy" chicken in the bags my granddaughter gave me. Try opening one bag it splits. Try another bag it splits. Didn't try the third bag. Ending up pouring the mix into the cooking tray and rolling the chicken in it. Will wait for help in future.

Nothing worse than rubbish packaging. Hate tiny/vague instructions

I guess it is packaging that has not been tested with dyspraxics.

I particularly struggle with the self resealing packaging that cheese seems to come in these days.

the other day I had poked a hole in a sauce squeezy pot that actually had a rather nifty turn and self reseal arrangement, I resealed it witha cocktail stick!

My wife showed me with the replacement that she bought.

Back in my day - stuff came loose or wrapped in greaseproff paper and shoved in a bag - we even bought loose eggs and loose biscuits.

Nowadays the packaging is part of the merchandising promtion rather than just a way for one to get the goods home in a usable state.

Poor instructions are a real bugbear.

On a separate note does anyone else have difficulty tearing open those small sachets of ketchup etc you now tend to get in cafes rather than there being a bottle of ketchup etc on the table ?

Interesting Henry, I listened to a BBC World Service Radio programme, The Food Chain yesterday, I am going to try to eat less processed food in future.
