I [ __ ] up so badly so many times.
00:00:03
There's a reason why like chocolate bars
00:00:04
have these like break points here where
00:00:06
they like break easily. I didn't know
00:00:07
that. Um, and so mine was just one solid
00:00:10
sheet of chocolate, but that's almost
00:00:12
like a piece of glass. Whereas if you
00:00:14
drop it, it just shatters into like a
00:00:15
bunch of little pieces. And I also
00:00:17
didn't know that there's a thing called
00:00:18
a a package engineer. One thing that was
00:00:21
brutal, like the the worst thing I ever
00:00:24
did in my life is uh my original
00:00:27
chocolate box. When you pop these open
00:00:29
and put it on a shelf, this obviously
00:00:32
the problem's fixed. But if if this was
00:00:35
sitting on a shelf, when you grab this
00:00:36
one, these would all slide forward and
00:00:38
then they would fall out of the box or
00:00:40
the box would fall off the shelf because
00:00:42
of the weight because there wasn't right
00:00:43
balance at the bottom and the lips here.
00:00:46
This this didn't used to be a thing. So
00:00:47
these were open and there was just a
00:00:48
bottom lip here and so they would fall
00:00:50
out like that. And then the bars,
00:00:52
because we didn't have the natural break
00:00:53
points, would shatter like
