I wanted to share a tip [View all]

It is hard for me to fill the plastic snack bags that open on one end instead of across the side. I only use them for one thing, chopped raw chicken for my cat and I put 3 days worth into each bag. It is hard to fill the bags with something so messy. After a few experiemnts, I cut the bottom out of a medicine dose cup, the kind that come free with cough syrup or Pepto. It is the perfect size and while still a little challenging, it is much neater than before.

I'd keep buying the side opening bags, but not seeing them available or cheap.
