To hate the packaging on the Ped Egg?

And razors, and toothbrushes?
All that horrible hard plastic, with no obvious way in- I've got a nasty cut from battling with the Ped Egg one today.
Why do they make it so difficult?

Yes its positively impregnible.

Is it just me also who thinks they should call it a ped-o-file?

I hate the Ped Egg advert, it makes me want to boak when she tips all those filings in the bin.

WHO WOULD DO THAT????

I can't even say the name. The whole concept makes me feel sick. The name alone makes me feel queasy - putting the name of a food on an item for dead skin.

I would rather have yellow scaly horny hoofs than empty the filings out of a ped egg .

(Actually my feet are fine, before you all go getting ideas about me).

I gree with you full OP! I try to use scissors and cut myself, try to pull it apart and get a paper cut or something else stupid. The packaging sucks.

There's a brilliant episode of Curb Your Enthusiasm about that packaging.

Ha ha ha this thread made me laugh...some very funny comments. I bought one of those ped eggs once I eventually got it out of the horrid packaging I couldn't bring myself to use it.

Actually the packaging is part of the product.

The sharp corners get rid of really hard bits of skin a proper treat.

Top tip: ped egg contents make an inexpensive alternative to pricy Parmesan

YANBU positively awful, i got a cut from one of those. As for the Ped Egg i love emptying all those lovely shavings and watching them go in the bin, the highlight of my Ped Egging experience But then again i did consider Podiatry as a career

I hate that packaging even more when it's a new pair of scissors - FFS I am buying scissors for a fecking reason.....
