Had anyone ever successfully peeled the plastic off the top of a packet of supermarket meat?

Anyone?? Opened a pack of chicken breasts from the supermarket to cook for dinner. Usually I stab at it with a knife because I can never peel the top off. Thought I’d try again. Nothing. Don’t give me a corner flap to pull if it’s not going to work.

Is there a secret I’m missing? Or have the packaging designers all got together to make it impossible for their own amusement?

I usually injure myself doing housework. I’ve punched myself many times. Gave myself a fat lip once! And I’ve skinned my knuckles dusting. Not even sure how thats possible.

I use a knife on the lid. I can't touch raw chicken with my hands. Even the thought !!! So its a sharp fork and poultry scissors after that.
