Scale does crazy things. If Google switched to a slightly cheaper salt packet they’d probably save $100M/year.

- catern 6y agoScale isn't everything. If each of 200000 employees used 10 salt packets a week, at a cost of $0.003 per salt packet (from https://www.warehouse115.com/single-serv-flat-salt-packets-poly-bag-0-6-gm.html https://www.warehouse115.com/single-serv-flat-salt-packets-p...), then if they cut their salt expenditures in half they'd save: >>> (200000*10*52*0.003)/2 156000.0 $156,000
