Why pay the earth for expensive jigsaws? Just take a bag of frozen chips from the freezer and try piecing together potatoes.
The advice to use frozen chips (french fries) as a substitute for expensive jigsaw puzzles is likely meant as humor or a playful suggestion rather than practical advice. Attempting to piece together frozen chips would not be a suitable or enjoyable alternative to jigsaw puzzles for several reasons:
- Unsuitable Material: Frozen chips are made from potatoes, which are not designed for the precision and intricacy required for jigsaw puzzles. Their irregular shapes and sizes would make it extremely challenging and unsatisfying to create a coherent picture.
- Food Waste: Using frozen chips for such a purpose would result in food waste, which is not a responsible or sustainable practice.
- Messy and Inconvenient: As you handle the frozen chips, they will thaw and become messy, making it difficult to maintain the puzzle. Additionally, the moisture from thawing chips could damage the surface on which you are working.
- Lack of Entertainment Value: Jigsaw puzzles are not just about the final picture; they also offer a sense of accomplishment, relaxation, and entertainment. Attempting to assemble frozen chips would likely lack these benefits.
In conclusion, while the suggestion to use frozen chips as an alternative to jigsaw puzzles may be humorous in nature, it is not practical or advisable. If you enjoy jigsaw puzzles, it’s best to invest in traditional puzzle sets designed for that purpose to fully enjoy the experience.
