Crazy Circle

I usually make pancakes Saturday morning. I have a nice griddle and lots of pancake mix! I like to spray the griddle with PAM Spray first. Well I noticed there was a little cut circle on top of the PAM Spray cap. Yes, on the cap, there was this tiny hole.

It was actually a circle cut out of it and the little circle was held on by very little pieces of the cap still attached to the circle. I went to touch it last Saturday and the little circle popped into the cap, still hanging on by a little piece of the cap.

I have no idea why it is there. The can didn't explode when I pushed the circle. There wasn't confetti thrown over my head and horns blown to tell my I won some grand prize. Nor did an alarm sound, alerting some security breach had happened. Nothing happened. Absolutely nothing!

So I'm not sure why it is there. But I do know I broke the one on the cap of my PAM Spray and nothing happened. So maybe the PAM company can put some tiny writing on the circle as to why it's there. Maybe something like, "This Circle may not be removed under penalty of law except by the consumer." Or "This Circle has been placed here for environmental protection." I don't know. Something would be nice.

Anyway, lesson learned, don't mess with circles you don't know about because someday you may mess with a circle of angry soccer moms! You may end up with a crazy eye!
