The New Version of Bubble Wrap Won't Pop

 

Sealed Air Corp has been selling the original Bubble Wrap as a packaging material since the 1960s, but now the days of popping are coming to an end. According to the Wall Street Journal, the new version of the packing material—christened with the atrocious name iBubble Wrap— won't pop under pressure. Sorry friends.

The heck with the grandkids if they are young enough that we have to shhh, they're young enough to forget.  It is the bubble popping addicted adults (ME) I'm worried about. Taking away such an innocent guilty pleasure is unconscionable  lol.

I joyously give up everything on the list EXCEPT popping bubble wrap.

The piece I heard on this said that they will still sell the regular bubble wrap.
