Do you hate it when you open up a new tub and you tear the label almost in half?

Seems that many supplement companies out there create labels that easily tear off if you are not careful. One of my pet peeves. I wonder why can't they just put a permanent print on the tub itself instead? This would happen when I used Beast Creature and now it has happened opening my new tub of RE1GN.

Yeah they are easy to tear. Didn't even mean to tear it and it just came off when I was opening it up. Oh well its just a label but when I have people over I like to show people how much stuff is in it.

Bro your parties sound awesome
 
Most things have labels printed? Which companies print straight on to their tubs?

I think he may mean a label printed onto the tub as opposed to one wrapped around it that can be pulled off when you remove the top seal.

Oh right, I see. Like the shrink wrap ones. That makes more sense lol
 
oh man, this one may be better than his squats suck threads

does the products not work without the fancy label?

I mean, if it rips off the directions or serving size or something, I could see how that’d be less than ideal.

that's fine but has anyone ever forget what dosage of a supplement they should take? it's not like I have a pre workout just because the label says to use 1 scoop that i'll forget and use 5 scoops

ugh happens to me all the time... sometimes I freak out because I don't know what to do so I just add water to the tub and chug it all. But then I have stroke and forget what I just did so I do it again the next day. such a problem.
 
The ones where the label is also the tamper seal at the top are the best. So you could just tear the label right off the product.

Not sure if you realize this but most scoopers are off by a decent amount. I always look at the serving size and weight out my pres with a scale. As silly as this thread is I agree its a PITA the way some of these labels are made now. I have had to either scotch tape the label to the tub or use a sharpie and right serving size and which pre it was on the tub/lid. Its not a huge issue but it gets annoying
 
There is usually perforation around the lid. Simply take a knife to separate the two sections and your label was not tear off
 
Well when I got home I just took the part of the label that got torn off and put it back on the tub. Looks like new when it sits on the shelf. :)

This. Particularly if the product tends to clump up, the scoop can be a fair bit off, so knowing the serving size (in grams) can actually be a pretty useful thing.

how many damn pre's do you have open at one time that you'd be confused as to which one you are using?

Even if you only have one open, perhaps the scoop isn’t quite accurate, particularly if the product clumps or something. 1 serving may be 15.2g, but 1 scoop may be something like 12.3g or 17.4g, who knows. It’s not really the end of the world, but if you like being very precise and have a scale, knowing the proper serving size (in grams) can be nice.

An ice cube on your nuts while getting head is 'nice'

Knowing the precise quantity of my pre doesn't come into that category (for me anyway) lol

To each his own. Maybe I like measuring out exact scoops of PWO while getting head with ice on my nuts? Gotta keep things fresh and interesting, you know? We all have our kinks.

When you are using some of these higher stim pres a few extra grams can make a huge difference. I know most dont worry about this stuff but when I started to realize how much some of these scoopers are off I decided to always start measuring them. I always have a gram scale sitting on my counter anyway, it takes an extra 15 seconds

Lol if you weighing your preworkouts then thats funny....plus google it

A scoop being off a bit and you pulling out a scale is just being extra

Wouldn’t it be better to not have to Google it? I’m not saying it’s a necessity by any means, only that, all things equal, I’d prefer an intact label. Even if it’s a trivial matter for you, I don’t know anyone who would prefer their label fall apart, right? I don’t really see the point of contention here. Labels on, good. Labels off, at least somewhat not as good.

Not sure that I share your definition of "nice"
 
Sloppy buttcheeks greasy aluminum mapLe syrup dripping asscheeks clapping furiously to an unspecified beat at a polish hostel surrounded by angry germans pouring beer onto a white hot griddle of low grade sausage and angry hash browns influenced by the beliefs of beefcakes and their beefy brothers. Labels tho? I dunno...

haha I just don't see a difference label on or label off.....I know what I bought, I made an educated purchase, I know what I'm going to dose the product at

my shelve actually has tubs with no labels on them....1 being creatine and 1 being a mixture of amino products that I just throw together, never mattered to me...the product is the product with or without the label

heck I have a jug of protein on my shelve that has a label on it and the protein in the jug isn't even the same brand or type of protein that's on the label
