This is a question Greed

Buzzkillington says: "I once worked for Pizza Hut... Whats the the worst thing you've ever done for money?" And while we're here, tell us about greedy people you know. Money or pie, it doesn't matter.

Pringles
If the slogan 'Once you pop, you can't stop' is true, how comes they have a resealable lid?

It is true, mind. Especially the Texas BBQ ones.

They are using it again.
Along with all their others.

They're big into their recycling up North.
They're even still using last year's fashions!

I like to pretend that I am a giant with the tiny packets of nuts and miniature cans of beer.
You get odd looks from the trolley dollies when you go the whole "fee fi fo fum" ... but it's worth it.

It's not a lid, it's a mouth guard.
Stops you from shovelling the Pringles mindlessly into your facehole.

Instead they are crushed against the plastic, breaking them into tiny pieces so they fall irretrievably to the floor. Horrible things.

I knew a girl that worked for McCains
The best bit of the spud goes to their luxury oven chips. They also supply McDonalds and use good spud for that.

The left over bits go to make reconstituted 'fries', the manky bits go to make hash-brown type things.

Then they scrape up all the left over, mangled bits off the machinery and the bottom of the bowls etc and they go to make Pringles.

True story.

Doesn't make them taste any worse though.

Chips
I knew a girl who visited the McCain factory, told me she'd never eat oven chips again. But would never say why.

I have the record
amongst my chums for getting the most (stacked) pringles in my mouth at once. It was some time ago, possibly before they shrunk them, but I'm sure I managed 20+.

My mouth was so full I had to chew them with my lips - took bloody hours!

The tubes are smaller now
When we extremely poor in the 90s, we used to buy a tube of Pringles as a treat, and made them last. I remember comparing them to a 6-pack of Walkers crisps which were 180g in total. Pringles were 200g and were about the same price so were a better deal.
The tubes are now 165g or thereabouts.
