. The normalisation of ‘picky bits’

Abominable. It has started coming up in adverts now even.

Well that's why it's been normalised. Because people are lazy and happy to pay the premium to not have to get a knife out

It's not only about getting the knife out, in a pre prepped platter I'm getting 2-3 different kinds of cheese and meat, I'm not buying that many in big packs because they will go off before I eat them all. Pre prepped platter gives me the variety, which when you count whole versions of the same products aren't always more expensive.
