Random thoughts about roadside art, National Parks, historic preservation, philosophy of technology, and whatever else happens to cross my mind.

The incredible shrinking junk food
Interesting marketing technique - turn the wrapper into a memo pad and hope consumers won't notice that what's inside that New wrapper has shrunk while at the same time the price being charged for the box has gone up.
Have you noticed all the contorted containers, too? I bought some peanut butter with grooves and indentations all over the container which were obviously meant to both cause it to hold less peanut butter and conceal that fact.
