Our culinary team recently discovered pink kitchen tape. We currently use blue tape. They want to switch to pink. I told them that if they could make a compelling argument as to why we should swap, then I would consider the change. So…last night I got this.
I think they’ve won this round.

Making them go through red tape to get the pink tape, nice

Yeah.. it’s hard to argue the hard copies.

I switched to neon green. Never going back!

The reason for blue is there is no blue food for it to get camouflaged in. Same with Bandaids. Pink can hide in lots of stuff

My argument would just be, it’ll make us happy and not hound you for the change.

Counter point: there are pink foods in a kitchen and you don’t want to be serving people tiny pieces of tape. Same reason why food service bandaids are bright blue.

As a graphic artist, who lurks here for some reason, and find myself constantly having to battle with clients over WHY contrast is sooo important and repeatedly find myself having to tell people stuff like navy blue writing on a black background is not a good design decision.
I say go with the pink.
Plus, it gives you an excuse to belt out one of the greatest Aerosmith songs from time to time.

You should reply back stating if the topic of switching tape is truly on the table, neon yellow, lime green, and fluorescent orange should be considered as well.

This went from “ha ha very funny” to “oh shit should I switch the pink tape?”

Hey chatgpt, write a funny and sarcastic letter to my boss the chef arguing why we should use pink tape instead of blue..
That said the arguments are good, I would switch to pink tape because it’s a good argument and pink Sharpies because I’m an asshole.

And then you said sorry the blue tape is a nickel less a roll.

I think you shouldn’t make such an important decision based on such preliminary findings. I would approach this topic by setting up a project steering committee and a clear project plan with achievable but bold schedule. I think 3 to 6 months of proof of concept should allow to gather some preliminary findings based on which you can consider the next steps. This would clear a path for the introduction of proper testing. I estimate that this time next year, we should be closer to creating a list of potential providers for final testing.

the swatch sample is killing me…the ragged blue edges, the magically sharp pink, terrible handwriting on blue, tidy on pink—you better hold them to these improved handwriting standards chef!

As someone who works with web products I was absolutely tickled by the citation of WCAG standards for contrast. Love how deep they went in their arguments in favor

I was tickled by this and showed out to my husband, who said he just labeled all his guitar pedal boxes with blue tape and noticed he couldn’t read them in low light, so now he’s going to go look for pink tape. So you can tell your crew their argument is making a difference outside your kitchen!
