      Ya and you can easily buy the tool for them on eBay or a normal strong magnet if you know it’s needed.

    If you ate protein bars you could just smash them open with your hands, at least that’s how I understand protein works 🤔

    I think LPL has a video in these. All you need is a strong magnet to operate the latching mechanism from the outside

    The actual tool uses two magnets to unlock the mechanism and allow you to slide the tab.

    On the wider ones, the heel of your shoe to the center top of the clear plastic will cause it to bow and open up.

      People on GLP-1s need to eat more protein. Because of this, everything now has added protein which has caused the price of whey protein to rise dramatically.

      Those bars are probably anywhere from $2-4 each, so they’re targets for theft.

        How do people afford GLP1s but can’t afford these bars?

          I think they can’t afford the bars because they have to pay for the GLP-1s

        I think it’s just marketing. Whenever I ask someone why he takes extra protein, the answer is almost always “for muscles to grow”. That’s not how protein even works. By not really doing anything and just taking extra protein, you build mass, not muscle, and now you see bunch of teenagers whose bodies look like 40 from behind and they just generally look fat, not strong.

        Humans generally have enough protein intake to not think about it (last I checked, around 2.5% have deficiency, poor regions)

          If you are stressed out with tense muscles all the time, increasing your protein intake makes your muscles grow. A bit crampy at times though.

      I imagine it has more to do with money density, e.g. dollars per cubic inch. If you sold gold bars, making them huge limits the amount that someone can sneak out under their trenchcoat.

    Most optimal would be a hammer but anything from dropping onto ground to using your teeth.

    Hammer or sometimes the keys to these are just a pattern of magnets.
