Damn &$^@ing Jello-O pudding lids!!!

WTF?!?! Everyone I open tears. If I'm lucky, only one side tears and I can carefully get the lid off, but other times I end up with this...




Sometimes, I get these that have foil lids and they come off without problem.

Bill Cosby - What's your excuse!!!

It's That damn Irene Rosenfeld. Ever since they moved the pudding manufacturing from Scarborough, Ontario to Springfield, it's never been the same.

What really p's me off is when I open a yogurt at work and it spooges on my shirt when I pull back the foil lid. It was even worse when I lived in Colorado at altitude. I am sure Gogar knows what I mean

While I feel bad for the 81 employees in Ontario, it's still no excuse!!!

Besides the all foil lids are for more effective than these obviously inferior plastic/foil lids.

I'm outraged!

I have learned to open the Yoplait lids slowly.

This may work with the Yogurt, but I think it'll make my Jell-O situation even worse.

That's funny.

My 2YO won't eat her pudding unless I removed the entire lid. I opened one for her the other day and a corner remained. I gave it to her and she replied" Daaaaaaadddy, take the lid off."Honey, it's ok, just eat it like that." "mommmmmmmmmmmmmmmy"

Wife: :She won;t eat it unless the whole lid is gone".
Me: @#$$##%^&*&^%$-stupid jello pudding makers.


You'd think, you know, it being 2008 and all......................

That looks better than the old metal lids that kids would cut their tongue on when they licked it clean.

Yes, but not 3-6 in one sitting like Shaun...

It's usually my desert (1) after dinner. On occasion, I'll have one before I go rollerblading - for the sugar (energy) rush.
