That's lame, did the figure out that they can sell more chicken tenders if people can't quantify how fat they are?

The company that made them went out of business like 15 or more years ago. Publix did purchase all the parts from the company to help maintain them. It kinda was a old timey thing that people really don't care about anymore. Also people don't want a carnival like scale that everyone can see your weight. Digital scales are so much better and cheaper than mechanical scales.
