HI GRRNers:

I've been scanning the holiday ads/coupons and came across a new product
that could be a candidate for bad packaging design.

The product is Ball Park Singles (hotdogs) that now come individually
wrapped. ..... for freshness... Michael Jordan is the spokesperson for
this product.

Resa - I'f you like I can mail you the ad but it might be in your local
papers too.

"New - Ball Park Singles. Individually-wrapped, self-venting,
microwaveable franks.... the big, juicy taste steams right in. Just
open the box, tear off and pop it in the microwave for about 20
seconds. No mess-and the rest stay fresh. A great snack or quick lunch
for one!"
