Have you Ever Had This Happen to you?

i bought a carton of chicken stock at the store to make a new recipe. I picked up the stock and the carton had been opened. In other words, someone had opened it in the store and put it back on the shelf. I didn't even think to check the seal and it was not that light to notice.

Are people nuts?

This probably explains why food packages are more and more difficult to initially open. Pulling the seal from some products requires carpenter tools :)

@ArtieKat even Costco milk has a seal. the jug is meant to tip for Arthritis patients but you can't get the seal off. this stock had a twist top and a foil seal. both broken

@akindheart Some seals require a knife point to first puncture the seal to expose something to grab hold of to remove the seal. This brings up the need for a new kitchen tool: kitchen pliers.
