There's not many things more maddening than failed packaging—pop tops that don't pop, zippers that don't zip, perforations that stubbornly refuse to rip open neatly.

YouTube user Jeff Wysaski, posting under the moniker PleatedJeans, has highlighted such headache-causing fails in a video entitled "Your Food Packaging is Bad and You Should Feel Bad," featuring a number of common packaging fails. Watch, and see if you can relate.
