You stick your thumb inside the fold on (4) and turn the fold inside out (5)

The video posted elsewhere in the thread explained it well

I’ve worked in a restaurant. My job, at every spare moment, was to fold-seal little paper bags filled with goodies precisely this way. I’ve likely made thousands of these folds, if not tens of thousands. 50x4/73654, if I had to guess. I’ve attempted this with chip bags dozens of times and never managed it. Seeing this feels like a taunt, you son of a bitch

That’s quite a large bag of chips, though

That was the only thing that keeps the wound within my ego from festering. “It’s a different material! The bag’s larger. It can’t be me.” But it is, and I’m angery

They used double-sided tape! They’re a phony!

This method is a little bit different then what I use, this one folds the corner in before rolling down the bag, What I do, even in my chips bag, I roll it down, then fold the corners in, then roll it out once over the folded corners. Maybe that would be easier for you to do to this kind of bags?

I still just can’t manage it. One side slips and the other crumbles because of the lack of tension! I’m certain that it’s possible, but I’m giving up once again.
