The things that our shoppers listed as needing convenience updates indicate that plastic packages are seen as more convenient than glass, that cereal seems inconvenient for multiple reasons, that many snack items are still in packages that shoppers feel are inconvenient, and that items that are hard to open are just not seen as very convenient no matter how convenient they are once they are opened.

Happy Summer! Mona Doyle
