I got some cheese triangles today and when I came to open one I noticed the little red tag that you use to peel the tinfoil off was missing as was all the tags on the other triangles

What kind of twisted person cuts of the little pully tags on cheese triangles?
They are tricky to open at the best of times

I couldn't get the plastic foil sheath off a new bottle of Plax this morning.

I just slumped on the bed and cried.

The red tags are a recentish phenomenon though, didn't have them when I was a child & never did me any harm Grin

Maybe they're cutting costs in tough economic times?

SaggyOldClothCatPuss · 15/03/2012 22:00

I think that crucifixion is too god for the little bastard!

SpringHeeledJack · 15/03/2012 22:02

ooh, Talc

Modern Life is indeed Rubbish

I say that daily

it has become my motto

TalcAndTurnips · 15/03/2012 22:06

Jack - it was a mournful bit of lone graffiti on a disused electricity sub-station near where I used to live.

I always thought it was very profound.

SilverMachine · 15/03/2012 22:08

Member is right, they never used to have tags. The trick is to bite off one corner of the triangle and sqeeze the cheese out.

The bits of foil that inevitably end up in the cheese give it a much improved texture and flavour.

SpringHeeledJack · 15/03/2012 22:09

Blur nicked it, for the Second Album No-one Bought, iirc

BrianCoxHasScaryHair · 15/03/2012 22:10

Errr - I bought that album.

Tracy Jacks is a legend of a song.

SpringHeeledJack · 15/03/2012 22:13

no, that was the third one, I think. Even I bought that one

there was one before that 'un, called Modern Life is Rubbish. I'm convinced.

fuzzpig · 15/03/2012 22:13

Removing them is just the kind of thing a cold, calculating psychopath would do. You're screwed.

SpringHeeledJack · 15/03/2012 22:14
TalcAndTurnips · 15/03/2012 22:15

Jack & Brian - ooh yes; just googled that.

My bit of graffiti pre-dated that release by a decade or so - must have been a most insightful disaffected youth wot did it Grin

SpringHeeledJack · 15/03/2012 22:16

I think the OP should observe my other motto, which is Buy Cheap Buy Twice

s/he has evidently been buying rubbish Lidl type cheese triangles

I recommend Laughing Cow. They always have tags on

also they are French, and therefore of course posh

SilverMachine · 15/03/2012 22:18

Modern Life is Rubbish is a great album, but Tracy Jacks is on Parklife.

TalcAndTurnips · 15/03/2012 22:18

x post - yes, Jack - that's right. He was down there last year. We have the most breathtaking set of photos taken from the helicopter of the glaciers - where they crumble into the water at the bottom, it's a sheer wall of ice over 100ft high.

Talc - apparently, Damon Albarn saw some grafiti stating 'Modern Life is Rubbish' and nicked it for the album title...maybe it was the same piece of graffiti??

SpringHeeledJack · 15/03/2012 22:20

bronze · 15/03/2012 22:21

Silver is correct

BrianCoxHasScaryHair · 15/03/2012 22:22
TalcAndTurnips · 15/03/2012 22:25

Really, Brian? Shock

It was in a place I can't imagine Albarn hanging out in.

Jack - like this, with exactly that same shade of toothpaste blue. Beautiful.

SpringHeeledJack · 15/03/2012 22:27

ooh gosh

that's exactly what I'm after

am off to see photos from Scott and Shackleton's Antarctic explorations tomorrow

tabs are hardly modern now, strings are from the olden days

laughing cow was certainly well posh, i longed for it all my childhood because my parents went to france on a fancy holiday (which I now suspect was actually a booze buying holiday) and brought me some laughing cow (or whatever it was (well I suspect still is) in French).

I've a feeling it was string though - the sort that yu were suposed to pull all the way around and it never really worked that well. Modern say cheese triangle opening is so sophisticated isn't it?

The fly in the munchies has bothered me - surely lack of biscuit is better than the addition of a fly and should result in more Munchies. Unless of course the thought behind it was you had that little extra so only need a voucher
