Kagayaki makes a good point. But they might be loud enough to warrant a complaint XD

Lol, I kinda feel bad for laughing.. .>_> Those bags were really loud.. My sister would buy a big back of those (I think it was the cheese ones) and getting even one chip was risky of waking everyone up lol

Well, you could always put them in a Ziploc and then throw the eco-bag away, I guess. But that might kinda defeat the purpose of an eco-bag...

I could if the CEO had integrity. :p

Lol, I wish I could Thank You for this post xDDD I almost choked on my blueberry muffin xD]Wow. We're so spoiled.[/QUOTE]
I may have missed something, but I don't think that has anything to do with any of this ^^

It's not like the companies are catering to our needs. They merely recognize that the noisy bags are a distraction from the actual chips. So much of a distraction that people have stopped buying them so they wouldn't have to hear the ear assaulting crinkling of the bag D= They recognize that if they want business back, they should do something about it or their sales die even more.

So, them pulling the noisy bags isn't because people didn't like it (in a way), but to get sales back up. It benefits them in the end.

The CEO has some, since they're going to try other eco-friendly packages... They don't want to not cater to the eco fad that's going on.

I dunno, I define integrity as sticking behind their goals until they can find something better. That's just me. Defining integrity as "We'll totally do this thing until we lose money" isn't so much.

It's like if I said "I promise I'll never lie again, except when I need to to avoid getting in trouble." That isn't honesty.

I've done that, as a huge fan of Sun Chips myself. XD

Actually Tsuki, I have. I slipped out of my room when a few friends were sleeping over and I grabbed the bag. It woke my parents up. :sweat:
