Noise Pollution vs Environmental Pollution - apparently Noise Pollution wins!

I have a feeling that the complaints are from people who liked to "hide" their snacking from family and friends.
A better solution would have been to lay off the snacks in the first place and maybe get healthier. (I'm refering to anyone with high cholesterol/etc., and not necessarily people who might be a few pounds to heavy....but if the shoe fits....)

Haha ..our local grocer sells cakes in a two-piece plastic container. You could wake the dead trying to open it!

i dont believe this! it's pathetic. i mean people are actually calling in because the bags are too noisy??!!! who even thinks of this stuff?
and now they are changing their packaging??
why doesnt everyone start calling ane writing to the FDA and telling them how we no longer want chemicals and hormones in our food? would anyone do anything about that??

in Europe, artificial coloring and flavoring was banned more than a decade ago--it CAN be done!! our foods do not need to have 100 year shelf life!!

They are REALLY loud. I didn't complain, but I did vow to never buy them in that bag again.
