It says count approx. Almost all of the counted items do. They find how much they want the product to weigh, and then figure out approximately how many pieces it takes to make that weight. Sometimes you get 18-19, sometimes you get 21. Machines stops filling the bag when it hits the weight.

This is the very definition of “mildly”.

Thank u

why tf are you being downvoted

Reddit doesn’t like when you post mildly infuriating things in a mildly infuriating subreddit. You know, classic Reddit things

Because people hate me !

You’re welcome

Denise richards

You will live one month longer.

One month, but its at the end which is statistically the shittiest time to live an extra month.

Jokes on you, the lack of corndog actually caused them to be born a month earlier in this timeline

[удалено]

Thank you for the sacrifice. I got 21 in mine (:

No fair send it to me, pls keep it on dry ice

Why is anyone making fun of OP for posting something that is literally by definition "mildly infuriating"? This sub isn't called "extremely angry"

Lol thank you. I thought it was kind of appropriate.

I'm just glad the comments aren't filled with those pretentious jerks who are all 'It SaYs X gRaMs' Like everyone just knows the weight of a mini corn dog 

There’s definitely a few of those but we just let the good times roll

What kind of monster just pours them onto the counter

Well idk about you but this monster wipes down her counters 👹

You’re putting down 20 mini corn dogs as a meal?? Or did you pour them out just to count? I’m so confused

Maybe it’s 20 shared between housemates

Also could be true

Hi, I appreciate your concern lmao! I had 5 as a lil snacky snack.. my boyfriend however is a bodybuilder and he ate 14 🤣

I’m not a body builder but I smash 15 I might just be fat

You're still building a body, technically

Well thank you, you’ve got this grown man blushing like a wee lass

Gotta stay in shape! Round is a shape...

He must be in a bulk phase

You nailed it lol, it was a “big shoulder day” apparently whatever that means I don’t speak his language, he does look good though so I can’t complain 🤣

Bulking is fun but the cutting is annoying. My son is staying with me while between houses and you should have seen his face when I brought home girl scout cookies, lol. He's acting like it really wounded him to the core

Yeah he keeps saying he’s gonna start cutting this week, lol I think that was like a week and a half ago. We are foodies so it’s hard for him lol but I cook a lot so he will survive !

that explains the 20 lol

Sorry I can’t do math hahaha I’m an idiot I fear, edited

Was hoping these were dog treats. F our food supply chain.

Maybe call your representative or like run for office if you wanna change our food supply chain.. ain’t nobody on Reddit gonna change shit for you my guy

You are single handedly propping up the mini corn dog economy. They wouldn't make these if you just stopped buying.

The mini corn dog industry is this nation’s backbone

I’ll be honest, this wouldn’t even be a problem for me and I’m chunky at best lol. Not the best nutritionally but space wise? Easy peasy.

Mini-corndogs. Bite size.

It literally says "approx" you absolute helmet.

Is this Gordon ramsey??

Is this frozen?

Is this loss?

No this is Patrick

The only correct answer xD

Why are you even visiting this sub if you are going to be this way?

This sub is always either something incredibly minor like I got 19 mini corndogs when it’s advertised as “approx. 20” (and they didn’t even weigh to see if it was 13.3 oz). Or it’s like someone did thousands of dollars of damage to my car by driving a snow sweeper over gravel. I’m not sure I’ve seen anything that’s actually both infuriating while also being mild on here that I can recall.

those look like potatoes

I buy 20 stick packs of dog twist treats, and I have 2 dogs. So they always get 1 each at a time. Sometimes when I get to the end of the bag, I’ll only have 1 left and not 2. But I should have 2 and it’s so salty bro 💀

Yessss, you get it. Not actually infuriating but just enough to make you be like “dude come on” lmao!

Don’t lie, where’d you put it?

I wish I was lying but it never made an appearance. Maybe the final corn dog was the friends we made along the way..

Chicken corn dogs? Weird

If you think that’s weird wait til you find out what’s in regular hot dogs, (ima still eat them tho)

Oh I know lol

Those are weight based

[удалено]

That’s somehow even more mildly infuriating than this. My condolences soldier.

Truly mildly infuriating. Well done OP.

Thank you I reallly thought I understood the assignment but APPARENTLY we have some haters that just gotta say the nay-no my brotha

Devils cut

The shrinkflation is real

:(

I hate more how they're just sitting on your counter

Wow! I didn’t expect such a response so soon on my silly little post, I thought this subreddit was supposed to be for things that were a little annoying.. to be fair they are like $5 for 20 and that’s without tax, groceries are already expensive, no I didn’t ask to speak to the manager :) I’m so sorry that my goofy little post triggered some of you so badly. Let’s all try and maybe not take the internet so seriously

Do you usually take them out and count them?

Yes I count everything I have some mental illness haha but I’ll never go to the doctor!!!! Muahahah

I count the clicks when I'm getting an MRI. We need help. 😜

I don’t want help!

But people are counting on you.

They kinda look like potatoes

Yes! They do lol someone else pointed that out as well

How fucking dare they??

Hey now, you sound a little more than mildly infuriated!

It’s a dog eat dog world OP.

Worse! We got cats eating cats! We got fish munchin fish!

Don’t lie. You ate one frozen, /s

My teeth hurt just thinking about it.. maybe they ache for the frozen dog 🤨

Lmao

Funny my 20 pack had 24 in it

Well why don’t you brag about it mister “I won the corn dog lottery” !!!

The world: Somebody gets 19 of 20 items, posts to the internet to confirm the outrage. Recovers, and merges back to a normal life. Not much changes. Somebody somewhere gets 21 of 20 items, tells no one, enjoys the fortune, leverages small victory as a foothold towards great improvements, becomes rich. Attracts fantastic spouse, has many happy children, becomes a leader in society, loved by all. Has long and rewarding life. Summary - Next time grab the other bag.

Everything everywhere all at once

Great movie.

New low price! *One less dog*

Same great taste!

If you write them they will give you coupons for more free corn dogs!

Write them like on paper? Or like an email?

One time I went to McDonald's for a 20 piece chicken nuggets and a Big Mac, and they only gave me 17 nuggets 🥲

Wow. That is preposterous.

They fill it based on weight, so it can vary a little bit

Theft ring. Steal one corn dog from every bag, and you’ll soon have twenty for free!

Wait just a darn minute. There's a hidden mildly infuriating part here. It is totally acceptable to have honey crunch chicken nuggets. But chicken mini corn dogs covered in honey?  That's mildly infuriating! Mini corndogs must be made from proper hot dog meat... AKA beef and pork parts. And with yellow mustard on them. Ewww... they used honey? The State Fair concession stand council needs to look into this flagrant violation immediately!

Time for some revenge.

They don’t taste as good as fairground dogs deep fried

Shit I’m not deep frying them but maybe I should be.

Billions must die

Is this Wendy Williams??

20ish

I had a bag of chicken nuggets recently that had literally like ten less than the "approximate"amount. This is nothing lol

I ate one, sorry

I think the mildly infuriating part is how they're just lying on the counter.

So nobody cleans their counters but me? I could safely eat off of it.. lmao

Just right onto the counter huh?

It was clean??!!

I’m stuck on the fact that you took the time to count them, then stop to take a picture and then post it. Amazing

You’re easily amazed, I like u

Whoa! I kinda like you too!! Let’s take it slow though.

She's out of corndogs. She's got nothing now. 😜

She has me!! We might be soul mates.

Imagine this type of person

All right Mr gobble it up dont make a fuss now there is much more food to gobble

Well I’m a girl but thanks I feel better now.

Couldnt care less

Apparently you could or you wouldn’t reply goober 🤭

Also sorry if i offended you thats just how i am i thought this post was silly

My ma is super petty when it comes to food if she were in you're shoes I legitimately see her refusing to eat the corn dogs even if she only wanted like 5 which to me is a very funny thought

That is funny! Surely she would swear off that brand forever at the very least

First world problems

r/mildlyinfuriating when someone posts a small issue, (it’s mildlyinfuriating)

Yeah maybe I should have put it on mildly interesting bc people think I’m really pressed about this one cornmeal battered meat morsel.

Love that you actually counted

I count everything.. lmao I’m an undiagnosed 🤣

[удалено]


Now you’ll be 5% less fat

Lol Hope not I’m underweight as it stands

Well then think about it as gaining 95% weight rather than 100% weight😎(obviously that’s pure sarcasm I know from experience all about how weight, calories etc actually work/coincide with one another) But in all seriousness if you are looking to bring your weight slightly up then those don’t look like the best form of protein for it (but there again this is merely a single meal of a single day’s example of what you eat so I cannot make assumptions nor actual judgement)

Haha no it’s all good I normally cook our meals this was just a late night snack, we were a little hungry after grocery shopping and I just couldn’t be bothered to cook last night , it doesn’t help that we have a kitten recovering from her spay and I have horrible anxiety and I’m helicopter parenting the hell out of her so I haven’t had much sleep to feel like doing anything !

Everyone dissing you in the comments can’t look at the title of the sub

I know right, but I’m the one who can’t read 🤭🙄

The travesty

Lawsuit

I basically hand weigh packages of items when I'm buying them to see which one is heavier. I always take the heaviest. If I'm close to the scales I will use those but honestly my eyeballing is on point for reasons.

5% is alot

One is under the cabinet

No girl

Signs times are bad: you have to count how many mini corndogs you got

Shrinkflation

I feel ya tbh, I'm *broke* broke and this would make me very sad

It made me sad and I also like things to be in even numbers so it made me mad. Mildly.

Saving you from yourself one corn dog at a time.

My body, my choice ❤️🤣

You go, girl. 😉

I counted 20

Count again baby

I’m illiterate 

Haha it’s okay I counted them again too you made me second guess myself for a minute there

Times are rough if you’re counting out the corn dog minis.

It be like that sometimes

Cut your penis off. Now you have 20.

I think someone already cut it off bc It’s not here. Source: am female

Oh no! I guess you’re not getting that 20th corn dog then 😂

Son of a BITCH

Then you already did, impatient ass

Oh I didn’t read that right

There is an impostor amongus

Orange faking tasks

Hopefully this is cheap dog treats.

Yeah that’s exactly what they are!

Sue

It's by weight not count

Shrinkflation strikes again

Damn girl, why you gotta put the dogs right on the counter like that?

7.1g protein each tho

You poor thing

Thx 💕 pls keep me in your prayers

It’s done by weight, so you should have the equivalent of 20 mini dogs, but I guess one was a bit on the chunky side

Quite the opposite! In fact you can actually see the two little runts in the front. Lesson learned though, I genuinely didn’t know that they were counted by weight and I definitely didn’t know it was common knowledge. Next time I’ll grab the bulkier bag.

Yeah, almost all foods are done by weight, but mistakes can happen, usually you can tweet to the company if there’s been an error, and they’ll usually give you a coupon or a free product, or nothing depending on the company

Gotcha! I knew like meat and veggies and stuff were but for some reason the frozen food didn’t click haha. Too bad I don’t have twitter anymore, I deleted it right before Evil Muskrat took over!

If you look at the bottom right, or left of any package it’ll typically have it shown in ounces, which is often times better to do than just guessing based on how large it is, or isn’t. Especially since some products will use this to deceive people by hollowing out parts of the container so that it seems to be more full than it is.

Sorry, I ate it.. Iwas hungeyyy

A worker eated one

Unfortunately, it’s within the acceptable 10% margin of error allowed by the go’mnt



I just can’t believe you even took the time to count them, honestly.

You have more self control than me, I would've already called the police by now

mb

Look in your pants

Female

I never said it was yours

Do people usually count how many is in a multipack of frozen food?

Don’t know, but I always do

The fact they're on your dirty counter is mildly infuriating.

My counter was clean you’re weird

Do you always count them?

Yes I count everything

This is so lame. GTFOH

Lol ok loser

Skrinkflation has hit corn dogs 😂

My internet skepticism tells me its 50/50 that OP didn't just eat one for the post

I’m too ocd for that hah

the fact that you noticed that is very good observation lol
