Frankly, I was surprised to see that they sell those things prep-made.
Melted butter and Graham cracker crumbs and press them lightly into a
pan. It doesn't get much easier than that. I just couldn't figure out
why someone too lazy to make them herself would be so meticulous about
selecting the perfect one.... while handling them all carelessly. I
thought to myself when I saw her doing it that I hope she was not
damaging them by picking them up like that and then rejecting them
because of the damage she had caused.

When I was in high school I had a job in the toy and sporting goods
department of a store and watched people opening up boxes to check the
contents and then taking taking one that was unopened. I confess that I
have been known to open boxes to make sure it is what I want, but only
if I am really sure it is what I want, and I take the one that I opened.
