My wife is a goddamn animal and will carefully tuck the open part in on itself, and then set the thing upside down.

It looks completely unopened this way, and when you pick it up the weight of the contents undoes the "seal," spilling everything everywhere. She did it with a 1 pound bag of M&Ms once.

JFC...did you marry Satan?

Wait where's the twisting. That's fundamental!

[–] Randall_Potato@lemmy.one 7 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Twist it. Tuck it. Press it against the wall.

That should be a rap song if it isn't yet

[–] CraigeryTheKid 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

But this is the correct way to do it!

[–] Rhabuko@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

It's the only way!

When I was lazy while having snacks in that packaging, I eat enough of the cookies/crackers to fold the end under the rest of the packaging.

[–] n7gifmdn@lemmy.ca 2 points 1 year ago

right, if you aren't going to eat enough to do that, what's the point.

If the UK calls those biscuits, what do you call savoury bread-like things such as these?

[–] SubArcticTundra 6 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Scones. Pronounce as you see fit.

I too spent a year living in New York, Britta. I know how to pronounce Bagel!

[–] animist@lemmy.one 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

So I can call it a suck-on-ee?

[–] SubArcticTundra 3 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

If you want to be stoned, yes.

[–] crmsnbleyd@sopuli.xyz 5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

That's an American bread, I don't think Brits really have that in their country. Being someone who also calls those biscuits, I would call this a savoury scone or a pastry

[–] fuat2mb@theres.life 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

@crmsnbleyd @RagingNerdoholic well southern biscuits certainly aren't a pastry of anykind. They aren't sweet at all and are an important part of any southern breakfast.

[–] fuat2mb@theres.life 1 points 1 year ago (1 children)

@crmsnbleyd @RagingNerdoholic but the real question is, then what do you call scones? Do you call those cookies and make the whole thing a circle?

[–] SturgiesYrFase@lemmy.ml 1 points 1 year ago

A scone is called a scone, depending on where you're at in the UK it's pronounced differently, skohn skawn, there's more, but I've only really lived in London and Edinburgh.

[–] Risk@lemmy.world 3 points 1 year ago

"Seal." Yes. "Seal..."

[–] TheNumberOfGeese@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

Oh branded biscuits! Very swish! When should we all pop 'round for a cup of tea and try them out! Looking forward to a comparative study against lidl and Sainsbury's ginger snaps :)

[–] Klaymore@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 year ago
