Impossible to pull off if your hand doesn't have the strength, and a can opener won't lift the top. The juice bottle? That little foil top? How am I supposed to grip that centimeter of foil on the edge? Argh!! I'm right there with you on frustration!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14463712.post-82354377284509367472011-01-31T21:44:04.614-08:002011-01-31T21:44:04.614-08:00Interesting.

Here's what I do on those foil lids- use my teeth. Just like the dentist always told you not to do.Kristenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00762808013877632260noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14463712.post-54811880907814991902011-01-31T12:42:49.402-08:002011-01-31T12:42:49.402-08:00I'm not sure it's different because of dif...I'm not sure it's different because of different stores. I have bought coffee mate flavor creamers at Wal-Mart and other stores and it seems one time they have that stupid foil stuff and then they have the pull top thingie. I have wondered why they have had different tops and thought maybe they were changing over to the pull top and the foil thingie was like just a "leftover" but anyway if it makes you feel any better that's my two cents worth!!MTVhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01008311670843742434noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14463712.post-30921184468654906712011-01-31T10:24:15.882-08:002011-01-31T10:24:15.882-08:00How odd.

Now you need to invest in some pliers to pull them off. :)Tanyahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08967412936650585698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14463712.post-28659863097244702372011-01-31T09:29:21.586-08:002011-01-31T09:29:21.586-08:00Wow!

I'm going to start paying attention to that. And I know exactly what you mean about those little impossible-to-open foil things. They are a pain. I always stab them and then rip them off too.Shannonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03518325345447825732noreply@blogger.com
