please explain this

Snack Pack and Jell-O both make pudding products sold in convenient, lunch-box ready cups. Both items are made with the same general ingredients - milk, water, sugars, oils, and cocoa (because, um, who would pick a non-chocolate pudding for lunch?).

And yet Jell-O Pudding is sold in the refrigerated section of your local grocery whereas Snack Pack is just left on some godforsaken shelf between the Liquid Dawn and off-brand colored pencils. Can you name another food product that is sold both refrigerated and at room temperature? No. No you cannot. The only one I can think of is milk, which, in some European countries, is sold in boxes that are just out on display. Trust me, that is a jarring moment, but one which you have to accept unless you are willing to eat your pinoli dry.

How can people buy Snack Pack knowing this? Would you just purchase a leg of lamb that was stacked in a grocery cart next to the cereal aisle? Maybe instead of those tasty frozen taquitos you can be persuaded to get the warm package on sale by the shampoo!

Gross. YOU HEAR ME, SNACK PACK BUYERS?!?! YOU ARE GROSS!!
