Bobby asked the guys in the studio what they do when they open a loaf of bread. If they take off the twist tie and grab a few slices, do they twist the bag back up and put the tie back on, or do they handle it another way?
He explained that instead of carefully resealing the bag, he usually twists it and tucks it underneath itself. Sometimes he leans it up against a wall or another object to keep it closed. As for the twist tie, he admitted he often throws it away or loses it entirely. That habit came back into focus when his pregnant wife asked him to grab her some saltines. He brought her the crackers and attempted to reseal the inner plastic sleeve. Rather than twisting it closed and putting it back in the box, he placed a bottle of water on top of the open end of the package to weigh it down. He said he didn’t even realize he did things like that until his wife texted him a picture of the crackers sitting on the counter with the water bottle on top and asked if that was really how he sealed them.
He defended the method, saying the weight of the bottle kept air from getting in and was similar to pushing a bag up against the wall. Others pointed out that while it may temporarily keep the crackers from going stale, someone would still have to properly close the package and put it away. He acknowledged that it would likely end up being him who handled it later. When asked whether this was typical guy behavior or something else, the room joked that it felt more like something a child would do. He was told that when the baby arrives, he might have a mini version of himself in the house since kids often do the same thing.
He admitted he leans a lot of open bags against things to “seal” them, including chips. Eddie acknowledged he does the same thing with chips, he rolls the bag and props it against a wall or even the toaster. Amy added that she always buys chip clips, but they always seem to disappear, so she doesn’t bother looking for them.
Bobby joked that the story was just a glimpse into what his wife deals with every day.
