Most depressing dinner ever

Have you ever had your dinner from an ice cream tub? Well I did. Thanks to Tai Pei's packaging change which now looks like a Bryers ripoff. I used to look forward to grabbing one of their meals in the cute, Chinese take out style box. You know who eats out of ice cream boxes? Aunt Lizzy after getting stood up by her Prom date. Some how that food did not taste the same.

Why didnĀ“t you get a dish and placed your meal there?

That's just not as fun, but you're right. I didn't think of that.

The takeout boxes are iconic. I can't believe they're changing that.

I'm considering contacting them about it. Not sure they'll listen though.

Poor Aunt Lizzy. That's pretty standard packaging in many places here. It's only for transportation and I guess to reduce costs, the packaging becomes more basic. You'll just have to suck it up or go to a more upmarket joint.

Well thats no fun, when you order take out you want it in the little box. I wouldn't be happy either
