How to Finish a Bag of Chips

Sometimes a bag of chips is so delicious that you want to eat every last morsel. But you eventually reach the point where there are only crumbs left in the bottom. Getting those crumbs out can be a hassle. Sometimes you tip the bag up only to have the crumbs cascade out and land in your hair, in your ears, in your eyes, in your clothes—everywhere except in your mouth. Other times you hear the crumbs coming down, but they never come out of the bag. You try to straighten out the lip of the bag [1], but to no avail. Reaching in and grabbing the crumbs is messy and time consuming. But despair not, I can show you a quick and easy way to get at those tasty little devils.[2]

First, shake all of the crumbs down into one corner of the bag.

Second, use a pair of scissors to cut that corner off the bag.

Now you can easily dump all of the crumbs into your eager and waiting mouth!

[2] This technique should work for other hard-to-finish-the-bottom-of-the-bag items, besides chips, such as Cracker Jacks, etc.
