Very simple, 7Zip to the rescue... I haven't used WinZIP in at least a decade...

I haven't used WinZip since I discovered 7-Zip.

I like my potato chips and Cheetos stale as by opening bag leaving out for a week more or less. Am I the only one with this preference. Also what does this have to do w/ a "software developer's life" other than we have to eat.

Yes, you're the only one.

Yep. You're all alone on that side of the fence. Just clear air (and rotting snacks) as far as the eye can see ...

Yes. Stale chips are...ugh...
OTOH, last week I also finished a carton of eggs that had apparently expired in early September. Cooked them for breakfast last weekend - I couldn't tell the difference.
I also have sour cream in the fridge right now with an expiration date of April 2022--I removed the seal only in September, I think, had some then, and yesterday again. Tasted perfectly fine to me.

My favorite label was the expiration date on rock salt.

Bottled water does it for me ...

I think those dates are for when the plastic starts leeching into the water.
I’ve given up trying to be calm. However, I am open to feeling slightly less agitated.
|

The bottle is formed by the water being injected cold in the plastic mold, so I thing the leeching starts much earlier.

With eggs put them in a cup of water, if they float, DON'T use them. If they sink, they're okay.

I had heard that before, but didn't try it. I just live on the edge like that...

There can only be one: you!

Yes.
I'm not even sure leaving a chips bag open a month would make them go stale in Denver. An open soft drink, on the other hand, will go flat in less than an hour.

I leave peppridge farm cookies unwrapped for a day because they're too crunchy.
Other than that, no.

I don't recall ever saying: that's nice and stale ... unless I was making bread crumbs.

Eating leftovers without enjoying the original meal?
I know that many of us were brought up never to throw away food because there are starving children in <wherever>, but this is ridiculous!

There are around 8 billion people on earth, and I guess you are the only one who has this specific preference.

Are they actually "stale"? Or perhaps just that they have absorbed a bit of moisture? Or dried out a bit more perhaps since it might depend where you live.
