After so many years, are our favorite sausages and jellies as difficult to tear apart as they were then?

To this end, Mr. Jiang visited ordinary and imported supermarkets, bought more than ten kinds of products from China, Japan and Korea, and found a friend @ Eve (Zhihu ID: Eve) who studied manufacturing and packaging of FMCG in Japan, which popularized the knowledge of how to eat ham sausage and jelly in island countries.

Part One: Ham and Sausage

Let's start with a sad fact. Sausages on the five shelves, whether Shuanghui, Luojin or Yurun, taste of meat, chicken and corn, are basically familiar recipes and familiar packaging.

This traditional packaging design, you know. To tear it from both ends, you have to bite off the metal hoop, or bite a hole in the seam and tear it from top to bottom, but not everyone has small tiger teeth, and not everyone has such exquisite ventriloquism.

So it can only be broken directly from the middle, the scene is cruel and the rejection rate is high.

But some sausages, at least left a seam in the middle.

But some of them are pits, and the whole body is smooth without open marks.

However, just when we thought that this sausage parade would get nothing, we finally found something different. That is: Shuanghui fish ham sausage! !

The red rectangle below is a tear strip, which is easily broken after being torn horizontally.

But wait, it turns out that this is just the beautiful imagination of the merchants. The fact is that ...

The red stripe itself is difficult to tear. I didn't tear it at first, but I finally tore it the second time, but I found that love is stronger than gold. ...

However, according to @ Eve, this design originally came from Japan and South Korea, and he also recommended two Korean fish sausages.

(1) Shanghai brand small lux fish sausage.

In fact, as early as 1954, the fish sausage of Maruyama Company in Japan introduced the tear strip design. This is an imitation of it.

After teacher Jiang personally tested it, the feeling after tearing was very smooth. With a gentle pull, the ham sausage will come out, and it will never be sloppy.

(2) Haliotis diversicolor sausage.

Another kind of fish sausage from Korea. It may be the roughest of all software packages, but the left test is effective.

But the taste is really ... I'm a little sorry about the packaging.

Hey, after watching it for a long time, why are they all designed with fish sausages? In fact, the reason is very simple. If it is pork products, there are few familiar intestinal designs abroad.

For them, it is unhealthy to make the meat rotten and mix all kinds of meat into the packaging of intestines.

Therefore, the problem of ham sausage packaging that we have been entangled in since childhood does not exist in foreign countries. Perhaps there is no chance to learn foreign packaging, which is also the reason why domestic sausage packaging has not improved for many years.

Ok, during the intermission, Teacher Jiang will perform for a while.

Next article: jelly article

The jelly in the cup is delicious, but it is also one of the shadows of childhood. Tear it with your hands or bite it with your teeth, and it will be broken after a bite; Cut it with a knife and it will flow everywhere. Sometimes you have to be sprayed in the face if you are unlucky.

The furthest distance in the world is probably the plastic film between jelly and me.

I walked around the supermarket and found that most of the packaging was still like this.

So is Japan better than us in this respect? Mr. @ Eve, who lives in the front line of Japan, gave us the answer.

Jelly is called ゼリー in Japanese, and the common packaging circulating in the market is probably like this.

I guess you have found the difference.

The difference lies in the shape of the container. In fact, various shapes bring not only beauty or differentiation. It's really easy to design like the picture above.

However, you will definitely scold your mother, and the style you gave is not available in China! You can't convince me at all!

Yes, there are many jellies in Japan that look the same as those in China.

But I'm sorry, this jelly is also easy to open.

There are two reasons.

Heat treatment of seal. Similar to the sealing treatment when packaging milk tea. This is the most important one. Judging from the tear marks, it is very smooth and tidy. It is estimated that domestic manufacturers do not think this is a problem, or are unwilling to increase investment in R&D for cost reasons.

2. The hardness of the bottle. Some shapes can tear well, which is related to the hardness of the bottle. It is not easy to deform when held normally, and it will not splash when torn.

Of course, according to the price and usage scenarios, jelly can be packaged in the following ways.

Of course, not all packaging designs in Japan are easy to use. Here is a Japanese website that complains about poor design. It can be felt that Japanese netizens have made a lot of serious complaints about the packaging opening (website:/cs/mitaiwa/detail/100520125963/1.htm):

Perhaps it is precisely because consumers and manufacturers are more serious or even careless about this detail that they will pay attention to it, and then experiment repeatedly until it is finally listed and circulated in a better way.
