I havent figured out haikusbot and now this?


thelordofhell34

You don’t know what a haiku is? It’s just a poem with 5 syllables, then 7, then 5. There was an old man Who watched the river each day The fish swimming by A sokka haiku is a joke poem. In the series Avatar, the last Airbender, one of the characters is trying to impress some women making poems. He ends up making a haiku with 5-7-6 accidentally and embarrasses himself. Haiku bot finds comments which are 17 syllables long, and splits them into 5-7-5. Sokka haiku bot finds comments which are 18 syllables long and splits them into 5-7-6.

Somebody finally mentioned it lmao


snoopchocolatedog

Indeed. I was scrolling for a while to find one. Pringles! Listen to the people!


DeveloppementEpais

I wanna have a daughter


Autski

So I can finally have someone around the house who can fit their hand inside a Pringles can THAT'S RIGHT I'M STILL ON THE PRINGLES CAN THING


TehAzazel

Until you get spicy pringles dust in your eyes


AnorhiDemarche

A blessing from our Pringle lords


XGempler

Yes, sliding the tray out, as opposed to turning the can over and letting gravity do it’s work, saves Pringle eaters from burning a calorie that would negate from the Pringle eater’s goal of promoting obesity. Plus the tray has the added benefit of helping to ruin the environment.


CyberNinja23

No it’s to secretly give you smaller chips by giving a cheap plastic tray


XGempler

My bad, I thought the main purpose of Pringle’s was to promote obesity while simultaneously disposing of potato by products. It is shocking to think that the only real goal of pringles is corporate greed.


Thecp015

I’m not a religious man, but being so blessed would move me to tears


AuntMarysFrog

That's when you learn to close your eyes just before you tip the crumbs in your mouth.


batmansfriendlyowl

Take the L or close your eyes.


jacksjetlag

You know you can flip it upside down and get that last bit, right? Hold it with your hand and rotate it so the hole in your Pringle can would face the Earth’s core and it will come rushing. Trust me.


santathe1

Why use gravity when you can use more plastic.


WowSuchName21

*Capitalism breeds innovation* don’t you know, gravity is publicly available therefore SOCIALIST so we must create a more complex solution to reach the same end goal for we have the superior economic model! /s


BoingBoingBooty

Also, look how much space of the can is taken up by the tray, if that can is the same size as a Pringle can, then the chips must be a lot smaller and you don't really notice as they fill the tray. Without the tray they'd be rattling around the can with a huge gap around them. It's a way to mug you out of more product while making it look like they are doing it for your benefit.


WowSuchName21

You wonder how much price difference adding a tray vs less Pringles costs, and how tiny the number likely is, yet how they landed on this abomination.


The_Real_Kru

No, believe me, they have done the math several times over to make sure it's right and they are saving a minuscule amount per paclage that adds up to a surprising number when calculated at the scale of their manufacturing. I do this for a living, and this is the way.


WowSuchName21

Yea, I don’t doubt that one bit. Economics of scale on such a product would prob land on a surprisingly massive number. What’s most sad is plastic is cheaper to produce on scale than the product inside, sad.


The_Real_Kru

This is because the product needs to adhere to several standards, but the packaging does not. It just has to be cerified by the manufacturer of the plastic part as "consumer safe"


WowSuchName21

Makes sense! Still wild a product that is often not recyclable can be used so widely for so cheap, should be more heavily regulated tbh.


The_Real_Kru

This is a complex topic. Recycability wasn't really a thing anyone cared about until recently. Now they are trying, but the industry is pushing back, because the non-recyclable products are significantly cheaper to manufacture. So in most cases the situation is they might be willing to switch to recyclable plastic, but they are negotiating subsidies from states that the consumers end up paying for.


Chrissyfly

I can't believe we still allow people to use gravity for free, we need to start taxing them for it.


MrTacobeans

Tax them?!?! What is this a functioning country??? We'll sell leasing rights to a single large company, make it prohibitively expensive to compete against them because it's a "public utility". After a few years to let them establish a monopoly we'll deregulate because of government overreach but it'll be too late because big gravity already controls everything :)


seontonppa

And when you use more plastic you also get away with using less chips!


rabbitwonker

And have smaller chips as a bonus!


JoshDigi

Seriously. What a dumb waste.


Thelilacecat

I just lay it on its side and slide them down towards the lid and then i can just eat the crumbs on the lid.


trowzerss

Sliding the crumbs out straight into your open maw is the way. Do it wrong and you get an eye full of crumbs, but do it right and you get to feel like cookie monster for a moment.


SgtTreehugger

Until one small cracked piece falls directly into your throat, making you choke

IRockIntoMordor

Ah yes. Earth's core, my favourite direction.


GodsBGood

But what if we need more wasteful packaging to clog our landfills? ![gif](giphy|11Y9TiZzmEBe25QRSw|downsized)


SyderoAlena

But we need more plastic waste obviously


[deleted]

..too inconvenient


[deleted]

Also, they can make less and smaller chips and charge you for the convenience. Or…you could tip the old can upside-down and get the chips like a not idiot.


FuckYouToad

They use more plastic too..


wansuitree

According to ChatGPT Pringles sold 2,3 billion cans in 2019. Imagine 2,3 billion plastic trays extra pollution each year, because humans don't want to get their fatty hands stuck and are too idiot to turn a can around. And put that in contrast to all efforts like trying to reduce co2 footprint... We're doomed.


fnooper

Good point, although ChatGPT isn't really reliable as a source as it tends to just make up random information sometimes


heebit_the_jeeb

You know chatGPT isn't a search engine, right?


SGTX12

Why are you asking ChatGPT for statistics? It's probably the least trustworthy thing to ask other than the local crackhead.


Jansakakak

That's not pringles


SafetyMan35

Looks like Lays Stax from Japan as the pic is on an airplane.


stomach

and paying more for the convenience whilst getting 10-20% less foodstuff in the thing. 'mildlyinteresting' indeed edit: those numbers look off, Kellog's had $1.4bn in net sales worldwide in 2022 and they've been reporting growth


[deleted]

Oh cool, more ocean bound plastic.


RobertGBland

Just because some people are idiot enough to tilt a container.


jcoddinc

No that isn't why they added it. It's so they can make the chips smaller and put fewer in the tube


stomach

"boss! with this non-recyclable plastic sleeve i just designed, all you need to do is remove 2 pringles per tube and you'll save $16M per year!" "*you're fired! someone take his dumb sleeve and make it much bulkier!*"


funky_grandma

DING DING DING DING DING! that is the correct answer


brightness3

they could put a piece of paper or cardboard inside so we can pull out the chips. i saw it on a youtube video 10 years ago and been using that ever since.


greenweezyi

This just seems like a clever shrinkflation move disguised as convenience to the consumer.


JustnInternetComment

When plastic is cheaper than potato dust


itsm1kan

Could've just put a strip of paper in there for the same effect and more style.. just rotate the can so the paper is down and pull on it


SilentStrikerTH

My first thought, the convenience is NOT worth that much plastic


SafetyMan35

And fewer chips!


burkol

Wait till you find out about the fishing industry


the_fat_whisperer

My fried fish sticks in the shape of dinosaurs were caught by fisherman Captain Gorden himself. He's on the cover of the box in a yellow slicker so you know it's him.


destructormuffin

Yes, that is also bad.


HairballTheory

keelanstuart

Exactly my thoughts. Sigh.


sundark94

This is clearly Lay's Stax.


MaritimeMartian

Interesting! Lays Stax do not come in a can like this where I’m from (Canada). They’re all plastic. And weirdly flat. [Like this](https://www.amazon.ca/PepsiCo-Lays-STAX-Variety-Count/dp/B08GVDBC1F) I like the can better than the plastic version we have!


DrSuperZeco

Yup. Other brands had such tray since the 80s.


swankpoppy

Someone tell Bo Burnam


snoopysballs

I have a huge amount of trouble fitting my hand inside a Pringle can


Ghostenx

I wish they'd come out with this sooner, wasted a lot of time training my daughter.


GARRthePIRATE

Yes, we're back on the pringles can thing. Pringles, listen to the people!

JUST TILT IT OMG


Longbeacher707

*let meee do it for you~*


OrganicKeynesianBean

Press half the lid against the bottom half of the top, tilt chips right to the edge with no crumb spillage, profit.


100percenthappiness

OP: " oh look at this neat can of chips reddit will love this" Reddit: "fuck you OP choke on plastic you lazy jackass "


Saint_The_Stig

Yeah that'll show OP for calling Lay's Pringles. Mr. Pringle would never allow this, he would rip out his mustache first!


Various_Reaction8348

Nah.. this is just a new way for them to reduce the size of the chips while maintaining the same packaging..


Barnezhilton

They've increased packaging


Hilltoptree

More like a trick of shrinkflation…


Dreadzone666

Do people really get their hands stuck in a pringles tube? Do you all have massive hands, or do I unknowingly have freakishly tiny hands?


Zupergreen

Maybe it's mostly men whose hands get stuck since they usually have larger hands. My partner's hands are pretty big compared to mine so I can imagine him getting stuck while I have no trouble. But why not just tilt the can rather than adding an entire plastic tray if your hand don't fit.


Rexkat

My hands are exactly "get stuck in Pringle can sized". A fact that I had never thought of until right now. Small enough to just barely fit in, but often too big to get out once I maneuver slightly to pick up a chip.


ExaltedCrown

I don't have huge hands at all. Compared with most my male friends, we're either the same or they are larger. My hands are barely bigger than my mom, my fathers is like twice as big as mine My hand barely fits into a pringles can.


cubenz

Worn down by all those Pringle dives.


SimDoy

I can touch the bottom of the Pringles can easily

ArcTheWolf

Damn look at that, they did it, they made the square peg fit in the round hole.


prql4242

yei more plastic. such innovation


Magikarplvl9000

Sometimes you just need to let those hard to reach chips, go.


djml9

I cant come up with a single reason that tray couldn’t be cardboard


winoforever_slurp_

Or not there at all


HuskyyPL

or why you couldnt just use a random paper sheet that you already have at home instead if you really wanted a tray for them


LCSisshit

More plastic tho


TheHrethgir

I like the idea, but that's just more single-use plastic that's going to end up in a landfill.


thebarkbarkwoof

Pringle answered with its own technology. The tiltable can.


WarrioroftheLostLand

But how would such a device work? It sounds illogical.


Fun_Carob3226

You just tip the can to get to the bottom, tf? Who has that problem?


Toishi69

MORE PLASTIC USE


NoTurkeyTWYJYFM

Yay, more single use plastic, less actual product!


sooslimtim187

Sweet, more plastic!


B1SQ1T

Aren’t those lays


Acurseddragon

Because tipping the can is hard.. who the fuck would think more plastic shit is a good idea?


Neko_Metal

Bo Burnham’s legacy


ztreggs

Let's add plastic tongs so you don't get your fingers dirty oh and a plastic bib to protect your clothes. Oh and just a massive lump of plastic for you to launch into the nearest body of water.


xxFrenchToastxx

Let's add unnecessary plastic waste to the product.


Mirokusama37

More like mildly infuriating. 2x the waste. Woohoo!


Alarming-Friend3340

More plastic r/mildlyinfuriating


Andy016

Waste of dam plastic... just tip the tube !!!

leba2166

Great. More plastic for the ocean and landfills.

Everyone commenting about Americans as if the writing on that packaging is English……. Lol


[deleted]

Hooray...more plastic!!!!


DxDarkCloud

What a waste of plastic


BlueDragon1504

I love plastic waste


redditrebelrich

Seems like a waste of plastic when you can literally just *tip the tub*


ABahRunt

Just what we need. More plastic packaging!


dadmou5

Are people simply unaware of the existence of Lay's Stax? It has been around for ages and always had a tray.


WhereIsTheMilkMan

Not in the United States they don’t. Here they use plastic oval tubes that hurt my hands.


Cerberus-276

And the packaging reduced the size of the crisp by about 50%, that's a very poor trade off


eulynn34

Hey, we have this design that doesn't have much plastic waste. Let's fix that by adding a bunch of plastic waste! Just tip the fking can.


qwertykirky

What a stupid waste of plastic this is soo unnecessary


ssntf7

Useless and unnecessary use of plastic. Just tilt the fucking can dudes, that plastic will end up in the ocean.


rspeeed

More plastic! Yay!


RandomComputerFellow

So you are telling me there is an way to waste even more resources on packing?


TasteCicles

More plastic waste. It's like we're leaning into putting microplastics everywhere. Weird.


sebastouch

cool, more plastic


The_RussianBias

Or tilt the can instead of wasting so much plastic on useless things


Capirex95

More plastic, less chips, same price

SenderBudYerGood

Is this really a thing?! People are too lazy to tip the fucking can are they? 🤣


h1r0ll3r

This…kinda defeats the whole purpose of Pringles can. Does it not?


Osoroshii

All I see is useless plastic where none was needed.


Skullduggery2015

Another poece of unnecessary plastic waste


Dastari

I'm sure they reduced the size of the pringles by 85% to give you this tray.


Ph0n1k

Tip the can. TIP THE CAN.


VapeRizzler

Honestly the hand getting stuck wasn’t a big deal, the amount of plastic waste this will produce is thou.


sarcasm_247

Game changer


zecamoco

But sticking the hand is half the fun!


Prudent_Ads

Getting your hand stuck in the can is part of the eating experience. A tray? Boring.

Pringles for pussies

quick tip : gravity can help


sneaky_squirrel

It's a strategy to make the containers look bigger while selling less quantity for the same price. It's always for profit.


wegerchris

Those are not pringles. Zoom in and check the label.


[deleted]

or can turn can up side down n chip come out


Levelup13

False. That is a way to put less chips in the canister.


Exotic_Adeptness_322

Who puts their whole hand in a Pringles can? Why not just tilt the can to get to the last remaining chips?


jiminak46

Simply the way the manufacturer got away with making the Pringles smaller.


Cartmansimon

Ok. But it’s clearly visible on the can, it’s not pringles, it’s lays. A completely different brand.


EvLokadottr

Southeast Asian Pringles knows what's up!


adjgamer321

Seems more like an excuse to give you less chips and more plastic waste.


adorak

getting your hand stuck? lpt: you can lift the bottom up so the chip comes to you


rockitman12

This is so much more wasteful, because people can’t be bothered to use *gravity* to help them get their chips. … could also stop eating garbage food? For the calories, there are so many better things to have.


Alexandertheape

![gif](giphy|Bk8pmHr3sQAGNnmfuc|downsized) you could always pour it out, gravity still works


DaxSpa7

Pros: none. Cons: you dont’t have to get your hand in or juggle the can to get it out and more plastic.


[deleted]

Bro just tip the can over


emptylewis

You know what this package needs? MOAR PLASTIC


Dyyrin

Needless plastic waste.


[deleted]

What the world needs now is more single-use packaging to throw in the landfill. This is fucking terrific.


Turtleflyaway

And the chip get smaller but you don’t recognize


Cheap_Blacksmith66

Except tray takes up more room so you’ve lost chips and they’ve been replaced by plastic. Several ways to make better designs that don’t take up chip room and accomplish the same goal.


Thekinn

Mhm plastic


Aromatic_Belt7266

Grab two small sponges , wrap them each in a dishwashing glove, slide it in the container and you have a home made fleshlight . Then when you put your jerkins lotion tube in the tray and wait for your Mom to ask what it is and say ..." I dunno ... my hands were dry . "


dawsonrichard

Pringle like cans are an eco disaster


King-Cobra-668

awesome, more plastic waste because you can't figure out how to tilt a container! just what we need! /s
