In Japan, it's interestingly rarely cheaper to buy packs than to buy the same number of individual items.

- cameronh90 4y agoIn Japan, packs often seem to contain individually wrapped items. Not sure if that has anything to do with it...
- looseyesterday 4y agoIn many wester countries there's guidance on how much sugar / fat / salt and individual should have in a single serving. Companies get around this by wrapping two or three single servings into a larger item 'to share' e.g. sneakers are often split in two and the packaging says sharing pack. I am guessing japan has more sensible regulations in this respect.
- fomine3 4y agoJapan have guidance but no regulation, so perhaps they don't need to have 'to share' pack.
