When you Need Chocolate...

...you need it right away. Dove should realize that when they glue their packaging together with heavy duty super glue!

The "Indestructable" Keyboard

This "Indestructable" Keyboard needed quite a lot of packaging. It still came through the mail broken...

Individually wrapped prunes!

My mouth dropped open when I saw this bad packaging. It is not in the category of frustrating, stupidly-designed, hard to open packaging, but under the category of bad-for-the-earth, what-the-hell-are-they-thinking, over-packaging.

What's next? Individually wrapped raisins?

Method Laundry Soap

I love anything Method makes. Soap, cleaning products and laundry supplies. But their packaging for the laundry soap is really dumb. It leaks over the edge of the rim and makes the bottle sticky. Dirty, dirty Method.

Here is another complaint about the pretty, but impractical, Method packaging.

Pilsbury Packaging

I'm sure we have all had the lovely experience of trying to open one of these Pilsbury packages. Just knock it against the counter and it pops open. Just knock it against the counter and it pops open. Just knock it...GAAAHHHH! FRAGA! BAHHH!

FedEx Package

I had to wrestle furiously and use a pair of scissors with this FedEx box. I was going to use my teeth, but then it would have gotten ugly.

Ortho Tri-Cyclen Lo

Not only is the outer packaging difficult to open, but whenever you need to push a pills through those little holes in the plastic dispenser (and I have heard this from other women) the pills sometimes hit the edge and shatter into dust. So much for the 99.9% efficiency rate.

Bad Tuna

Chicken of the Sea has already received a bad rap from Jessica Simpson, but their cans should get an even worse rap. Why, when I squeeze the top of the can to de-juice the tuna, does the tuna come out too? It makes for watery tuna and some cut fingertips.

(sorry for the bad photo)

Far East is too far

I love Far East couscous, but their flavor packets are a bitch to open. Shouldn't they tear open? Why should you have to fish around for a knife or a pair of scissors to get to some dehydrated chicken broth and carrots?

More Damn Clamshells!

Another disatrous clamshell from Sonicare.
