Brats and Buns

[homebeerbrewer]

I’ve had this question for years, but never got a good answer. Why do the big companies that make brats (Johnsonville, looking at you) package them with five brats, when most companies that make buns package six buns?

I actually called the toll free number on Johnsonville’s brat package to ask that question. The girl that I spoke to didn’t have the answer. lol

My guess is price point...

Bingo.... they go off of weight vs. Individual count. If they added a 6th link they would push the price point up higher than most consumers want to pay.
