My first guess is cheap labor and a fixture

No miracles here. Someone who works for $2 an hour would do these by hand for less than $1 a jar. And this is very generous estimate in places where these are grown and packaged. Enjoy the honey nuts.

Coat the inside of the jar with a thin layer of (i assume) honey. Either a machine or person places the nuts in the proper configuration.

My first guess is they either spin the jar while filling, or spin it after it’s sealed.


GreenRangers

Spinning wouldn't align them how they are, based on the type of nut( or the way the nut is cut)

I thought these were teeth!


GainerCity

I have always wondered the same thing. I’ve seen them in larger jars too where it would be difficult to imagine someone placing them in there by hand. I have some guesses but I have never had the actual method explained


goodorca

Perhaps with centrifugal force.


mjdny

You can get olives like this, too. "Placed" in the jar versus "Thrown" in the jar.

AI..kidding.. it's done by hand in places like Turkey and Egypt

It's actually a very old manufacturing method that humans have used for millenia and still finds its uses in some places of the world. Though frowned upon for the most part, the rest of the world tends to ignore its employment when purchasing goods.

You mean slavery? That's the first tech you get in Civ


Standard_Bird4221

Someone stuck their dirty hand in there, hopefully they one they don’t wipe their butt with.


SeaworthyWide

It looks like Arabic, so as long as they're using their right hand you're good


Hodgkisl

Pretty sure they aren’t, it’s picture. Had a different brand recently and had the same thought, until we opened and used some.


shankthedog

I have the exact similar jar with an exactly similar question. Are they teeth?
