You're right, the Frente 57 comp. packaging is quite user-unfriendly.
I managed to slash the plastic bag while opening the top. Then to
make matters worth, I cut off the ripped part. Now the bag's very
unattractive and I'm left with four slips of cardboard to deal with.
Maybe I'll transfer the whole kit and kabootle into a Zip lock. Would
that ruin the integrity of the design? Perhaps I should invest in an
archival copy :-)
