The circumference of a large Tim Horton’s coffee is approximately twelve inches. The opening on the lid for sipping is approximately 3/4 of an inch. Then why, WHY, does the seam of the cardboard cup so often end up lined up perfectly in the center of the opening in the lid?
I bought two coffees today and guess what? The opening in the lids were lined up perfectly with the seam in the cup! Arrgh!!!
UPDATE: I’ve been told that the reason they do this is to line up the weakest part of the lid with the strongest part of the cup. That makes it least likely to collapse and potentially burn someone. Hmmmm.
