Ditto with the packaged pre-sliced stuff my store has started
doing. It's over in the self serve olive bar/prepared food cool
case.

I never see anyone pick it up, but they must because it's
still going on. If it was by the 1/3 or 1/2 pound, it would
make more sense. You could take as many or as few as you like,
but no, it's pound size packages.

I still wonder when it was sliced. I'll just wait my turn
and have it sliced fresh.
