Most of the packaging which has come about is designed to thwart shoplifters. It would be interesting to find out if the costs of the new wraps is offset by any savings from theft.

I, for one, do not mind the packaging when it comes to stuff I don't want young children getting into AND also that keeps stuff safe from tampering. Anyone remember the Tylenol tampering which killed several people? I'm even happy my peanut butter comes with a safety film that has to be peeled back.

Got packaging? Got scissors/knife? No problem!
