You may be interested to know that these kinds of paper adhesives are usually intentionally designed so that the substrate (paper) tears before the adhesive does. This is meant to ensure robust packing and to give proof that the package has not been tampered with. Couple this with ever thinner and shittier substrates, and, well...

Ugh. I believe them already. It's sealed for my protection. I get it. It says so nearly 100 times. I don't check the seals for syringe marks first either, or the factory's latest cleanroom maintenance logs. Just let me in, I already paid the extortionate entry fee.

Seriously though, I wouldn't mind so much if they always were just paper I could poke a finger through at the end. Sometimes there's another super stretchy thick plastic layer under that which resists everything but blades. I don't want to keep a knife in my bathroom, but I'm getting to the point where I've thought about it.

I know what you mean. I wish more stuff could just be packed in glass jars with the little popping seal. If it's popped, it has been opened. I don't know if everything can handle the pressure difference... But it seems ideal. Plus then the glass jars and aluminum lids can be recycled.

This makes too much sense to ever be implemented.

Cost primarily. I'm okay with paying a little extra for glass bottles personally, I can reuse them.

Have you considered just not eating peanut butter in the bathroom?

Or open it in the kitchen first.

This was a supplement I was opening on my way to the bathroom, where I keep my medication. ~~Long covid memories makes ms forget everything to open first.~~ Long covid memory problems also make me fail to double check my posts every time for bad autocorrect.

Ah I guess that makes more sense than my assumption haha

The knife can double as a poop knife.

Just chew through the container. Pussy.
