Attached Lids

These are the devil's work.

They annoy me no end.

And it's more than a little insulting when they're labeled "child proof."

I've not seen this?

If the lids were unattached, wouldn't the product in the container just be open?

I agree, i wound up cutting the lids off for a while.

I've got used to them now but i still get wound up about them.

Yeah, my fingers don't work well on either hand. So I often end up having to grip the lid with my teeth.

It messes up the drinking and pouring experience too. It's just overall a badly designed product.

It's another greenwashing example. This isn't going to help recycling at all, especially when most plastic is not recycled anyway as recycled plastic has such inferior quality.

That bottle looks like it's tipping its fedora to the drinker.

Mine looks like someone chewed on the fedora.

No, they would just be enlightened.

Never seen this.

Have seen pop cap tops littered all over the place, though. That's what this is designed to prevent, probably.

Look in the bright side. At least you won't drop the lid.

I wrench it off. Lol.

People, like me, just wrench them off either way. The littering here makes bottle caps look positively tidy. London is a mighty dump. There are much bigger issues that need addressing re this kind of pollution.

You may be confused....One drinks the fluid.......You don't consume the lid!

The lid gets in the way.

The lid gets in the way.

I agree. This happens to me with my water bottles on occasion due to a manufacturing defect. I twist them off. If they want to attach lids, they should be using a lanyard or a rope.
