Bags

    This was going to be a grumpy pet-peeve post, but then the sun came out after days of rain, so now I'll be telling you how much I LOVE the freezer bags grocers use. OK, not really. The pet peeve is that when stores sell frozen foods in reclosable bags, they use old-fashioned zip lock (note lack of registered trademark spelling) bags which are almost impossible to reclose properly and which, if you ever succeed at reclosing them you cannot then reopen them without tearing them. The same stores sell freezer bags with an actual sliding zipper; these bags open and close so easily it's silly. It can't be that much of a savings going with the old-timey bags; even if it were, what's the use of ticking off all your customers?
    Dangit; sun went away again! Well, I'm glad I stuck with the griping.:)

Edit: To be more precise, if less clear, the ones with the actual zippers are called "slider bags," presumably because the ones without zippers were already called "zipper bags."
