Bait and Switch: Packaging Design Fails That Will Make You Mad

8. Hickory-Smoked Pork Ribs from ASDA

Product Cost: $5.21 Acquired at: Asda.com Created by: ASDA Foods There is half-eatenness on this ASDA Hickory Smoked Pork Rib Rack with Bacon, Cheese, and Barbeque Sauce. Since the ASDA box only includes food for one or two people, hopefully the customer was only preparing a meal for those two people. The packaging seemed like it would hold a whole rack of ribs when it was opened.
