Millie Garfield is one of the oldest bloggers on the internet. It helps that her son is blogger and video blogger Steve Garfield. This video is a great perspective on how regular people view packaging inconsistencies.

Here are the direction headings for Nestle Chocolate Chip Cookies:

Preheat
Just Break…
…and Bake!

but in Spanish:

Precaliente
Simplemente Desprenda…
…y Hornee!

I bought a pack of “Take and Bake” French baguettes and they have the following Baking Instructions with cheeky parenthetical comments:

1. Pre-heat your over (conventional) to 400 degrees Fahrenheit (not Celsius please).
2. Take the bread out of the freezer and place on a rack in the middle of the oven (no need to thaw, but for Pete’s sake, take it out of the bag first).
3. Bake for 10 to 12 minutes, or until golden brown (you can’t go wrong here, so relax).
4. Remove from the oven and allow the bread to cool for about 15 minutes (or eat it hot, it’s now your bread after all).

One of the things I buy on occasion is Dannon drinkable yogurt. A couple months ago, the package proclaimed, “Great New Taste!” in bright yellow starburst. Most consumer products must modify their packaging on a regular basis so shoppers will notice it. Cereal boxes are probably the ones modifying most often, but many others do also.

I just bought this yogurt again and the yellow starburst said, “Great Original Taste is Back!”

I have noticed several products recently in the grocery store that look kind of like off-brand items, like cereal, snacks, ice cream, but upon closer inspection, what appears to be a dog mascot actually indicates that these are items for dogs. I wasn’t fooled by the cereal or snacks, as it was pretty clear that they were for dogs, but I almost bought the ice cream sandwiches. Who would have thought they make ice cream for dogs?
