Why is everything packaged in kryptonite?

Q. Why is everything packaged in hard to open plastic that is impossible to open? Bleeding in MO

A. Mainly because in the past there just hasn’t been that much need for kryptonite so the industry was elated that it could be used to encase everything from Barbies to hearing aid batteries.

That this maims and frustrates the consumer is no reason to discontinue this practice. Besides, what would a birthday party be like without the children waiting for their toy to be finally freed from its plastic confines, while watching daddy and mommy bleed, curse and turn purple?
