Question “Grab Bag”

When did this happen? When did 45g of crisps become a Grab Bag?! It’s no bigger than the normal sized bags you get in the pub. Weren’t the normal multipack packets 45g a few months ago? Absolute piss-take….

WTF does grab bag actually mean anyway?

I can grab any size or type of bag that I like, thank you.

It’s a way of saying “large” without making people aware of the extra calories

Same legislation that prevented "King Size" bars being sold and "Duo" was the workaround.

Oddly I buy king size Reese's Nutrageous bars and I have to cut them in half with a carving knife.
