Earlier this month Bossy went to her local grocery co-op for sandwich bags and walked out with these:
Bossy failed to notice the fine print on the Ziplock box, which states the product contains snack bags, perfect for 100-calorie snacks!
Here is Bossy’s list of ten things that will fit in this bag according to the 100-calorie guideline:
- One oreo cookie
- 1/2 cup of slow-churned ice cream
- 1/3 cup of edamame
- One slice of low-fat cheese and three crumbled whole grain crackers
- 14 almonds
- 6 wholegrain pretzel rods, cut into quarters
- 1/3 cup of nonfat yogurt, 2/3 cup blueberries. Squish
- 8 baby carrots and 2 tablespoons of hummus
- 20 pistachios
- 1 cup of tomato soup
And here is a list of things Bossy wanted to store in these bags, with no luck:
- Bossy’s daughter’s sandwich
- Bossy’s daughter’s potato chips
- Half a lemon
- Three leftover chicken thighs
- One bunch of dill
- Anything
So Bossy did what any practical person would do in this good for nothing situation. She photoshopped her baggies to the proper size:
