After decades of cooking, I've just pulled the cellophane from a meat package intact for the first time ever. Have they changed how these are attached, or have I pulled off a bona fide miracle?

  1. Unbelievable. Talk me through the process.

    Also, please antibac wipe the kitchen surface. The cross contamination is making me edgy.

  2. Probably wasn’t sealed properly and you are going to die an agonising death sitting on the toilet bowl.

    That’s the only explanation I can think of.

  3. I SWEAR I managed to peel off the plastic of a bacon wrapper once. I’m happy you thought to take a picture, because I’m positive no one believes my story…

    I KNOW WHAT I SAW!

  4. Amazed that you took it out of the freezer with enough time to defrost instead of frying the solid frozen lump and scraping off the defrosted/burnt layer and then flipping and repeat until you get a thin enough bit to smash up.

    I’ve never managed that.

  5. Mate you want to try Sainos. They fucking vacuum pack their mince, it’s a miracle to behold.

  6. Holy fucking shit. Now peel the weird paper off the bottom of the mince without it tearing and you’ll be new king of England.

  7. Why would you place the plastic dirty side down on the counter? You have to clean it now.

  8. Yes it is. I opened a bacon pack from Sainsbury’s a few months ago, with the same result. First time ever.

  9. Let me know if you ever manage to cleanly remove the plastic on a box of chicken.

  10. No.

    This is a violation of the laws of the universe.

    Something horribly wrong is going to occur.
