That's what Jack the Ripper said...and it's as true today as it was then.You should never pass up an opportunity to use a knife.
Settle down Malone.Except when the other person has a gun!

I’ve done that too with those family sized bags. I live alone now for the last 12 years so nobody’s complaining. I’ve figured out lots of hacks using my knife.I was torn (pun intended) on this one. I rip it open like a barbarian BUT when I start getting the bottom of the bag I cut the top half of the bag off with my knife for better access.
My wife thinks this is weird...
Man, bringing back memories. My mom ran the concessions for the baseball organization back in the day. We would serve Frito pies like that. The small individual bags sliced down the side (this was key) with a spoon of chili and scoop of that incredible terrible yet delicious nacho cheese.I’ve done that too with those family sized bags. I live alone now for the last 12 years so nobody’s complaining. I’ve figured out lots of hacks using my knife.
I think my most clever idea was when I had just enough Frito's left for some frito chili cheese pie and cut the bag and used it for the bowl ! I was so proud of myself and impressed!when I was finished eating I just wadded up the empty bag and tossed it in the trash can like a boss ! Man ! That was awesome!

That is possibly the saddest story I have ever read on bladeforums.I’ve done that too with those family sized bags. I live alone now for the last 12 years so nobody’s complaining. I’ve figured out lots of hacks using my knife.

It sounds like you’ve opended chips with pliers too.
Best chips ever created!!!
I am an equal opportunity. If it crunches then I'm eating it.Provided it’s convenient to do so, I prefer to open a bag of kettle salt and vinegar with a traditional razor sharp pocket knife.
However, when my knife is still too unclean from its last kill, or when I just gotta stuff chips down the gullet as urgently as possible, I’m not below squeezing the bag forcefully aimed at my gaping gab until the contents are forcefully expelled from the bag and directly into my gut.
Btw: Sun chips are not worthy of being called chips, more like repurposed cardboard flakes, or perhaps triscuit factory seconds.

Also, scissors are for people with poor knife handling skills and very young paste eating children for art class.
I don’t even use them when wrapping Christmas presents, preferring to slice the paper with a blade fit for a functional man child.
