Stupid little things that bug you

Could be that they've replaced the Sodium Chloride with Potassium Chloride? Reduces the Sodium content of the crisps so they advertise as "45% less salt" as people are trying to reduce salt intake and it easier to understand at a glance than "45% less Sodium". Still probably has the same amount of "salt" in there but it's a Potassium salt rather than a Sodium salt.

The "45% less Sodium" I mentioned above would likely be incorrect as they can mess with the percentages reported by using either atomic weight of sodium (~23 g/mol) or molecular weight of Sodium Chloride (~58.5 g/mol) depending on which one gives a better percentage for their marketing blurb.
Thanks for this detailed reply. It's a bit heavy all this chemistry stuff. I just thought if I ordered salted crisps I would get salt. It's 50% of the name of the product. They have stolen most of the salt so it's taking the piss . Take the sugar off sugar donuts and the fat crew would burn greggs to the ground.
 
I hate the gambling ads on TV and radio that are rammed down our throats everyday, and then at the end they say "please gamble responsibly"!

I'm not a gambler so I don't have to gamble responsibly but I imagine gambling addicts won't be thinking about gambling responsibility when they're chasing their losses.

I think it's time gambling ads are banned because nobody needs ads forcing down their throats to then be told "please gamble responsibly" by some condescending ****!
 
When you finish work to find that some utter **** has smashed into the back of your car and driven off without leaving any details.
Twats trick mate. Not crashed into but plenty of scratches from pram, supermarket trolley drivers and even cyclists in the past.

What did make me smile, I may have seen it on BM or elsewhere on the web an idea to keep business cards from people who've done you wrong and put them on the windscreen of cars that have been hit.
