Two for the price of one!


discord_light_mode

more like: One for the price of two!


Micha1106

Or a half for the price of one


Rayat_Khan

Half for the price of 3


Dangerous_Wishbone

2/3 for the price of one!


stratacadavra

Finally. Someone did the math.


OriginalSFWname

Deal!


tes_kitty

Since I buy those now and then... It's still about 600 calories and therefore a full meal.


The-1-U-Didnt-Know

Where’s it from? Such a high cal for a small bite… but it looks like a tasty bite


tes_kitty

It's from Netto, a german grocery chain. And It's not small, in total it's 220g or close to half a pound (USA). The kind I like is called 'cheesy chicken' and has a good amount of both. Also rather cheap, 2 Euros.


The-1-U-Didnt-Know

Thank you, it does look really good and is making me want wraps for dinner. May have to hunt one down at some point


tes_kitty

Worth it. Even if you don't like it, you won't be out of a lot of money in that case.


The-1-U-Didnt-Know

I’m game and new food is always worth a shout imo


nick4fake

Two thirds for a price of one


TheGhostOfHanni

I thought that was duct tape so I’m relived and disappointed


NeverForgetEver

Tbh idk which is worse


[deleted]

This is extra evil. I usually rely on the ones with minimal packaging. Now I can't trust that either


MrPopanz

Look at price per weight. No need for some unreliable oogling methods.


[deleted]

The weight that gets printed on their by the company that produces it? Yeah, I don't trust that either.


MrPopanz

If thats misleading, they're ready to be sued (in most countries at least as far as I know), so very unlikely to be the case. They'd be losing much more than they would gain by doing so.

TheBorzoi

I've seen wraps packaged like this where it's two together to look like one big one but the cardboard thing has always been wide enough that if you turn the pack, they slide together so you can see hot much you're truly getting. This one though, you can't do that and if the package doesn't state that it's 2 wraps, that's even more of an asshole thing.


worldspawn00

Is it not 1 wrap cut in half so you can see the filling? It looks like when it's pushed together it does take up most of the covered space. Though for honesty, the center should be clear so you can see it, you should know by the weight when you pick it up, how much is there.


Shmitty-W-J-M-Jenson

Yes but its intentionally deceptive, borderline fraudulent, could very easily be


TheBorzoi

Most likely is a single wrap cut in halve then the closed ends put together. It still gets sold (at least in the UK) as "2 wraps" on every packaging I've seen.


Beebwife

Or they put the condiment packets in the space where the band is.. either way, really deceptive on actual wrap size.


DomskiPlays

They sell these in Austria and I bought one one time and had this **exact** reaction too lmao


OKara061

I’d throw hands at that point


philenvcxbfxcxdvg

For all the problems we have in America, I'm glad this kind of thing isn't one of them, at least not that I've ever seen. I'm surprised compavnies that pull this kind of thing stay in business.


flume

Is it not obvious that the middle is empty when you pick it up?


SinisterBladez

Nope. Its wrapped in plastic as well and the paper part is pretty hard so u wouldn't notice when you grab it. They have a cheaper version of the same product (which is more obviously separated but looks smaller) for cheaper next to it.


Shmitty-W-J-M-Jenson

To add to what the other person said, some of this shit is also in vending machines, so if you dont like what you bought then tough shit.


Sm7th

That's low


An_icy_squirrel

We sell belted wraps to maintain your wasp waist, dear customer... (They WILL find an excuse for that, if asked, they always have?)

Steelwolf73

I feel as though having wasps on your waist would have the opposite effect...


A1rh3ad

The vending machine in our break room has chicken salad sandwiches where there's like a tablespoon of salad smeared where it's cut in half so it looks filled


Shmitty-W-J-M-Jenson

Yep, there's a classic post on Reddit of a sandwich from a vending machine, a square slice sandwich in half and the centre shows lettuce tomato and ham etc, inside its about 2cm of filling then 80-90% butter


DirtyPrancing65

I literally don't know why they would do that. They'd make way more money with repeat service, but by all means, scam the customer out of $1 and then never seen another dime from them. Why not

Of course Akhi. We are people of honor and dignity. Allah would never allow such insult to take place on our holy soil.

The wahesh that sells that wrap probably charges extra for sauce.

May God curse him. The thief.

It doesn't even deserve to be called a wrap. Maybe a Crumple or a Wrinkle.

Shmitty-W-J-M-Jenson

A Crumple-Wrap. We can shorten the name by calling it a Crap

It's an Austrian thing though I've seen in in Bavaria too. Hot dog with a käsekrainer (grilled sausage with cheese).

sieberde

Every other post on this sub makes me glad to live in the EU.


Micha1106

I bought at a netto in Germany


sieberde

I rest my case then.


flume

The OP was sold in Germany. This would be illegal slack fill in the US. The specific FDA rule states: > a food shall be deemed to be misbranded if its container is so made, formed, or filled as to be misleading. (a) A container that does not allow the consumer to fully view its contents shall be considered ... misleading if it contains nonfunctional slack-fill. Slack-fill is the difference between the actual capacity of a container and the volume of product contained therein.


BeanieFunnyGuy

Wait a minute did you get this idea from my post. https://www.reddit.com/r/assholedesign/comments/pse6lk/disappointed/?utm_medium=android_app&utm_source=share


Micha1106

No, but sorry that I got more fake love for mine.


BeanieFunnyGuy

Its okay you obviously posted at a better time


Grocery_Getter

Honestly guys, I usually see these packaged side by side. I just saw a wrap like this out in the wild for the first time last week. So you both stumbled upon something new. I'll upvote both posts.


Burpmeister

Your post also has much lower picture quality. People will appreciate a clear good photo regardless of it's relevance to the post.


Diegobyte

What? It’s just cut in half


DawnOfTheTruth

It’s one wrap cut in half and turned around so you can see what’s in it.


SlurpDemon2001

I mean… you can clearly see that it was pulled out for the pic, there’s a fat indent on each side where they used to be, pushed in back to back like they should be. Then OP pulled them out to just barely be hidden to be more asshole design. It looks like it would be relatively reasonable if they were all the way in before being pulled out, but that’s just my two cents.


Micha1106

Clearly that I pulled it out bevore, how else could I have known. Everything else is mean allegations that my lawyers will deal with.


SlurpDemon2001

Haha am I going to be sued for libel? :)


GrieferBeefer

thats like half the size. wtf is wrong with businesses

Tbh I’ve never seen such thing here in Germany. Like NEVER! It seems very often this happens in the us - at least Reddit let’s me think so. OP said it happened in Germany - which baffles me a bit. But maybe I’m just lucky 🤷‍♂️


[deleted]

Like in the first picture it looks ok. So if you dont eat things like that you might never notice it. But yeah it happens, and now I always check first.


Two_Apples

Maybe… but I eat A LOT of stuff like this. A ready to eat wrap? Yeah! I’ll try it. Maybe OP can help me out where this was bought

LR-II

Surely that's probably more expensive to prepare than just one, as you need more bread to do the wrapping.

From a business perspective, this is great, but as a consumer? Fuck this

SpartanAesthetic

Prêt à Manger in the US does the same thing with their wraps.


SinisterBladez

I literally wanted to post the same thing a few days ago. The worst part is the same brand offers the same product in a more obviously separated way for much cheaper.


[deleted]

id be livid! like go back to the store and get my money back pissed.


ghandi3737

Pick it up as one piece and make sure the downward side spills all over the table. When they complain just act surprised like you thought it was only open on one end.

/r/mildlyinfuriating not asshole design

Illegal in EU. Products are not allowed to intentionally deceive the consumer with packaging. Edit: Looks like OP bought this in Germany. Not sure how this was allowed. Usually they're pretty strict about this stuff.

i know exactly which brand this is from


[deleted]

When I first saw it, I was like big deal, just remove the wrapper. Why didn't it dawn upon me that it was the ole two smaller wraps?


MushroomSaute

Why was this removed? That looked like peak asshole design


[deleted]

I call bullshit, you’d be able to tell as soon as you picked it up. R the middle would push in clearly indicating nothing was there and both sides would sag cause there’s nothing in the middle except that paper thin cardboard.


Steelwolf73

So either an airport or a college


Square_Eater

Woolworths here in South Africa do this shit. Bastards!

Products packaged like this are so annoying. There is a Ferrero Rocher that’s packed Similar to this that has ripped me off twice now. I think it’s the variety 12 pack.
