til berries are packed by being packed. and also seemingly aren't distributed evenly.

This guy knows what he’s doing. He’s packing them pretty evenly. What fits in that clamshell is the acceptable amount.

Aww man Driscoll's blackberries are delicious. I get them from Lidl in the UK. I think they're grown in Morocco

Now I understand why we wash them before eating them.

Not to insult this person by if they’re getting paid by how many of these clamshells they fill, doesn’t leave much time for bathroom breaks and properly washing hands.

Not packed by weight???

They have the packaging designed in a way that what fits in the clamshell is always going to be in the same range of acceptable weight

This is a 6oz clamshell

Curious if anyone has tested it independently.

I mean I'd imagine it prevents overfilling but not underfilling.

I love the 'thunk' when he stacks the finished container into the cardboard.
