Have You Noticed How Loud Sun Chips Bags Are?

Posted: 19 Aug 2010 07:30 AM PDT

Kathy at The Junk Drawer noticed how loud the Sun Chips bag is, so she did some research and found out she wasn’t alone. She threw up (not literally) a blog post about it a while back, snagging comments from around the innerwebs, made a short video and now is recoiling from the limelight.

Kathy. Kathy. Kathy. Carpe Diem.

The Wall Street Journal noticed the Sun Chips Loud Bag phenomenon:

They quoted Kathy, (but without mentioning her blog!) Her cow-orkers were dismayed that they included her age. Kathy said it was no biggie, just a number. “It’s not like they put my weight.”

Morning Express with Robin Meade commented on Sun Chips loud bag.

CBS Radio contacted Kathy to get some sound bites.  She watched Pepsi-co (owners of Sun Chips) visit her blog, and NBC poked around a little.

We both observed the incestuous relationship among the mainstream media. If the WSJ has it, it will go viral, and it’s started. The innerwebs will eat this up. Next up a nightly news program, then a Sunday morning news show, and round and round.

Kathy has discovered something about herself: she might be just a “little afraid” of all the attention.

But her family thinks she is a rock star. I wrote her that after Mythbusters does a segment, or Mike Rowe’s Dirty Jobs, will she be a rock star in my eyes.

Her time in the glare of the spotlight will last  until the next big thing grabs our attention.

Like this airplane paint job…
